Lewis looked really bad. I think his shoulder or arm might be ****ed up.

i'm gonna hope his hip took the brunt of the blow but he was out cold for a second there, hopefully just from the whiplash

exactly. there's no penalty, it's just chicken****. there's got to be some kind of professional respect.

Yup, exactly. McCann had NO intention of even making a defensive play. Could have pokechecked the puck, deflected the shot, just pure went for the body--which is legal--but he knew he had Lewis in a predatory position and finished him hard. Pissed the Kings didn't f***ing murder him right there.

The Carter loss gutted the Kings' top six.

If Lewis is out, RIP Kings bottom six.

Also can we ever just get out of Florida without a f***ing injury? f*** that state. Every time. Always something borderline that won't get looked at either.

Lewis looked utterly stunned. Might have got his bell rung.

the way his arms went stiff then slumped makes me think he was out

i'm still shocked these guys can get up and skate so quickly after being knocked out, every time i've been knocked out it's f***in nap time
 
My guess is a concussion, messed up shoulder, and a f***ed up leg.

Lewis pretty much got destroyed there.
 
SECTION 6 – PHYSICAL FOULS
Rule 41 - Boarding
41.1
Boarding
– A boarding penalty shall be imposed on any player who
checks or pushes a defenseless opponent in such a manner that
causes the opponent to hit or impact the boards violently or
dangerously. The severity of the penalty, based upon the impact with
the boards, shall be at the discretion of the Referee.
There is an enormous amount of judgment involved in the
application of this rule by the Referees. The onus is on the player
applying the check to ensure his opponent is not in a defenseless
position and if so, he must avoid or minimize contact. However, in
determining whether such contact could have been avoided, the
circumstances of the check, including whether the opponent put
himself in a vulnerable position immediately prior to or simultaneously
with the check or whether the check was unavoidable can be
considered. This balance must be considered by the Referees when
applying this rule.

How does this not apply exactly?

"defenseless" is the hangup there, he's got the puck on his tape and he's shooting, he's eligible to be checked. it's shit but it's the way it is.

i mean when have we ever seen a boarding call for a check that wasn't through the numbers anyway?

I dunno, hitting a guy that's in the act of shooting is like fish in a barrel. I'm not even saying he should have been given a major but god damn, at least 2 minutes for boarding seemed warranted.
