Not the worst I’ve ever seen. This one would be in my book as it was perfectly legal at the time and somehow was called interference.



...remember watching that game; thought Buff was gonna kill someone...totally legal hit on a Papier Mache Havlat who lost the puck between his own legs and took his eyes off of an oncoming Freight Train...
 
He literally shouldered him in the head, and now Bischel is getting checked for a concussion. That usually doesn’t happen for a hit to the chest.
Not usually but it can. I wanna say that actually happened earlier this year, maybe even a dif islanders game? I think no penalty called but there was ultimately a suspension by DPOS for charging.

Edit I guess it wasn’t the isles, think I’m mixing up the Tsyplakov hit with something else

Looks clean to me. Bischel just tried some weird fishing pole tech instead of arriving at the boards normally.
 
The 5'10" player intentionally shouldered the 6'7" player in the head without leaving his feet. That makes sense...

The contact from what I can see is to the chest first and then the head due to the Bischel putting himself in a vulnerable position. That's on Bischel
Cizikas is 5'11" and Bichsel is 6'5". You're even exaggerating the height difference.

Actually totally incorrect. Concussions can come from hits to the chest. In fact any hit strong enough and away from the head can cause a concussions just like a head hit can.

People think height matters WAY more than it does. You act like they are moving around the ice stuck straight up. They move their bodies around, they reach, they lunge for pucks. Hell, even a skating stride is going to rob you of height. It's a 9 inch difference dude. Why you acting like he was hit by Tyrion Lannister?
 
Reread your posts from the start. First comment was regarding Cizikas hit being an intestinal headshot. Then you went to heads only whipping back after going forward while trying to claim physics then it was followed by trusting the refs because they’re paid so they must be right. Next you’ll be angry when the league has no supplemental discipline regarding this hit because they know they screwed up and can’t backtrack on it. The 5 minute power play for a questionable hit is what won Dallas the game.
I very specifically said it doesn’t matter if it’s intentional or not. Never claimed this was intentional, I can’t read Cizikas’ mind to know that. I also very clearly said the refs aren’t perfect. Literally the opposite if they “must” be right. More strawmen from you.

Notice the word usually in my post. People are taking that to mean I’m saying a hit to the chest can never cause a concussion. Not at all what I’m saying. And doesn’t apply here since he clearly hit Bischel on the chin with his shoulder.
