Benning goes down after taking surprising Stalberg hit
Matthew Benning had to head off the ice after taking a hit from Viktor Stalberg that came seemingly out of nowhere as a jumble of bodies behind the net made it tough to navigate the ice.
This was a collision that Stalberg couldnt avoid. However because he was able to see it coming and brace himself he didnt take very much force and Benning took the rest, unlucky play. hope hes ok
Neither Benning nor Stalberg were going for any contact—they just ran right into each other. Ouch! I hope Benning isn't hurt too badly—this was like Knuble and Shanahan about 10 years ago.
I'm not saying it's a dirty play and I know people are going to get pissy with me but I think that should still be a penalty. I mean if you accidentally high stick someone it's a penalty.

Scary hit. Glad to see Stalberg showing some concern for Benning. It was clear that wasn't intentional.
Deserves a Raffi Torres long suspension
Just a collision but a nasty one. Hopefully he isn't out for anything more than this game. 🙁
Also here's the aftermath with him making his way off the ice, bloody but able to skate on his own so that's good. http://streamable.com/h43f8
lol Davidson responsible for that more than anything
completely OK, there was no way to avoid that. Stalberg checked if he was OK later on.

This guy literally puked all down the tunnel right after he got off…..I sense a concussion

more bs titles
4 minute penalty
This absolutely should have been a penalty, intent has nothing to do with a call, every play is entitled to their ice
kinda expected with 4 guys rushing behind the net.
Don't feel bad for Benning one bit
He clearly wasn't going for the puck but was going for the player. Should be suspended
