Andersson Delivers Dirty Hit On Laine
In the dying seconds of tonight's game between the Flames and the Blue Jackets, Rasmus Andersson delivered a super dirty hit on Patrik Laine.
Rasmus Andersson with a dirty hit on Patrik Laine at the buzzer
#Flames | #CBJ
Rasmus Andersson leaves his feet to hit Laine in the head right at the buzzer. Not a good look. Gudbranson jumped Andersson, gotta think the league will look at this one.
3- 1 Jackets win. But we're hoping Patty is ok. #CBJ
That's a disgusting suspendable hit by Rasmus Andersson to end the game
Great night for the #Flames
Luckily, Laine was able to make it off of the ice on his own power but he is likely in concussion protocol right now.
The most likely outcome is that Andersson will be suspended for a couple of games and Laine will miss more time with injury.
