In tonight's game against the Calgary Flames, Jacob Trouba once again demonstrated why he's known as one of the NHL's toughest hitters. However, his hard-hitting play came with consequences as Flames' rookie Jakob Pelletier felt the brunt of it.
During the first period, Pelletier found himself in a tough spot near the Flames' bench when Trouba saw an opportunity and delivered a massive hit, sending Pelletier crashing down to the ice.
The impact of the hit was significant, leading Pelletier to head straight to the dressing room for evaluation. This incident raises concerns, especially considering Pelletier's previous shoulder injuries this season. With just 1 assist in 3 games, his absence could pose a challenge for the Flames' lineup.
