Phoenix Coyotes forward Raffi Torres delivered a bone-crushing hit on Chicago Blackhawks forward Marion Hossa, knocking him unconscious during Tuesday night's NHL playoff game in Chicago.
Hossa had to be taken off the ice in a stretcher and left the rink in an ambulance. However, Hossa underwent some tests at the hospital and was released.
Although Torres appeared to leave his feet and launch himself into Hossa, he did not receive a penalty, but probably should have. We shall see if a suspension from the NHL is in order.
