Bennett hit on Stolarz (no supplemental discipline) MOD WARNING IN POST #621

Gets hit in the head, goes to the ice grabbing his head. Vomits minutes later. “Are we sure it was a concussion”
Pretty much! You don't know if it is or not. Nobody does until he's been examined by a doctor.

Also, my point was that I doubt he would be vomiting and heavily concussed from that hit. IF it is related to what happened in this game, there has got to be more.

Hey probably got concussed on the shot... The contact with Bennett just made everything worse but that was a heck of a shot he got in the face.
The mask popping off absorbed most of that. The back of the mask hugs the head though, there's nowhere for the force to go but into the attached element, which is the back of the skull. There's a reason rabbit punches are illegal in boxing.
 
I play goalie in beer league and have gotten a concussion from saving a wrist shot off my mask from a 55 year old. I can’t even imagine getting hit in the head by anything right after an NHL shot to the face.

This person has a gun shot wound but we can’t be sure that’s what killed them until the autopsy.
 
It’s a real possibility this is what happened but it’s irrelevant. Looking at who it is and how the Panthers last series went, the league has no choice but to step in with severe punishment imo. Bennett’s intentional shot to his head still caused the injury even if it wasn’t the only reason for the injury.

Not saying Bennett is innocent and he's definitely skated past the line multiple times but this one seems like there's barely any contact.
 
Penalty, sure. It was missed.

Suspension, no.

IMO, of course.

Bennett purposely elbowed Stolarz in the head leading him to be taken away to the hospital on a stretcher. In what crazy universe is that not a suspension in a league saying they want to take headshots out of the game?
 
It's 100% from that heavy shot right to the dome. The arm to the mask was nothing. Leafs fans are just angwy even tho they won. They headbutt each others harder than that when they do the celebration line to the goalie.

He got an elbow to the back of the head/neck. That absolutely causes dizziness and vomittingn.

That’s why it’s illegal in boxing.
 
It's easy to see why dirty teams and players do this kind of stuff.

Even if by some miracle they are held "accountable", the fine or 1-2 game suspension is a great trade off.. and for some reason the players don't police the career-long rats like Marchand / Tkachuk / Bennett. In the old days they would have got tuned up every other night until they straightened out or got ran out.
