The St. Louis Blues and Chicago Blackhawks have had a rivalry going on for decades now.
This is a rivalry built on bad blood, and sometimes rookies like to push the boundaries. One of them is Tyler Tucker, whom until recently none of us had heard of until he laid out Connor Bedard with a monstrous hit.
This is the 2nd time the rookie superstar has suffered a massive hit, due to having his head down, which Tucker took advantage of.

Bedard was vying for the puck and would be slammed by Tucker who would then have to answer the bell as Alex Vlasic took him on in a fight.
The hit was considered clean, but you can clearly see Tucker lifting his elbow as the impact suddenly occurred.
Given his current state of healing and the fact that he is Bedard, you should expect a response, whether from Nick Foligno who wasn't present, or Alex Vlasic who was prepared to enforce the code.
Bedard needs better situational awareness, and Tucker needs to quit being careless before he runs into someone like Radko Gudas, Ryan Reaves, Matt Rempe, or Nic Deslauriers and cries about it.
