I'm going to argue against head injuries every single time yeah. God forbid brain damage come from everything else in the sport, I'd really like everyone to come off the "get your head up" bullshit.

if it's shoulder to head straight through the front of the body, following through the chest, it's not a penalty. so it's a legal hit here, but man that's a dirty hit

it's a clean good Stevensesque hit, Meier can't skate it up the middle there against four guys

yup I'm afraid to say that New Jersey is the one team / fanbase that is not entitled to complain about that kind of hit.

they're meltdown mode right now
I'd be shocked if they'd had more than 15 seconds of sustained zone time at any point off the powerplay and now they're headhunting and letting odd-man rushes go the other way

the reason the Devils have no pressure anymore is their D have completely stop sealing the wall which is like the Rangers only breakout. understandable I suppose with a 2-0 lead but it's making me nervous

100% this, just because you can blow up a dude doesn’t mean you should blow up a dude. Dirty as gently caress.

He could have hit him and taken him off the puck, but he was going in to murder a dude. That’s what makes Trouba a shithead.

There's pretty much no reason to cave a dudes head in with a body check regardless of all the keep your head up or pay the price bullshit but until someone gets their neck broken "accidentaly" the NHL won't legislate it out and its real stupid

if Meier doesn't want to have guys looking to hit him like that, he shouldn't be trying to jump on goalie's knees, and (more importantly) he should learn hit avoidance strategies that are drilled into every hockey player since age 12

I just don't get why anyone wants to see hits where a player struggles to get up off the ice at this point. Clean hit or not. The refrain is always "keep your head up, lol they teach this in pee wee" but how about teach players to be physical without giving someone brain damage. It's not impossible

It's cool that you're blaming not the player who regularly dishes out brain damage "legally"
