Quelqu’un peut-il m’expliquer en quoi il s’agit d’un coup légal ? Il ne charge pas ? Ce n’est pas l’embarquement ?

I think it gets forgotten about because 5 mins later Bitchington got hurt when his own player drove himself and Naz into the net. But Barbashev comes from outside the zone, skates full stride and hits Sammy in the numbers, smashing his head off the glass too. Girard was probably our best performing D-man in that series up to that point, he was playing so well
I think it was legal but dirty AF with 100% intention of blowing up G as hard as he could.
If that were Manson retrieving the dump, he would of changed with the rest of his line mates, but he looks see’s G is going to be touching the puck, power turns and takes like 10 hard strides before obliterating G.
Take 8 ish strides before hitting Sammy. It’s 100% charging idk how anyone could argue it’s not.
It wasn’t a dirty play, just had a brutal outcome. If he hadn’t turned before the hit he would’ve put Sammy face-first into the boards, and that would’ve been a suspendable play.
He stopped skating at about the dot and used his edges and momentum to carry speed in to the hit, so it carried a lot of force, but again, that doesn’t make it dirty.
To me, that’s just a textbook example of how to finish a check. If Sammy hadn’t gotten hurt there would’ve been no talk of it being a dirty play, and we’d all have loved it if it was, say, Landy on Faulk.
Sometimes it’s your guy that makes the hit like that, and sometimes it’s your guy that takes it. Just how it goes.
it’s not
Obviously charging. Look up the rule
