Kris Letang just can’t catch a break this season after a big check from Shane Doan caused the Penguins defender to fall awkwardly tail-bone first into the boards.

Omg I just legit saw Kris Letang today at a donut shop and he gave me tickets to Tuesday's game
hey look it's Phil kessel in the stands at 1:17!!!
Letang wasn't braced for the hit and got thrown to the wall like a child and folded up like a paper crane. Not Doan's fault.
Letang is such an idiot of a player. He never protects himself. Some day he's going to get destroyed.
Did anyone else notice the guy sticking the middle finger out.
that must heart
ua
this guy always gets hurt
I think doan is hated by everyone in the NHL
good I hate latang
Who would dislike this oh it's probably all those philly fans
cheap hit. he didn't have the puck he was completely out of the play
what a bummer
what are the pens going to do without him
I'd say it was a clean hit and I'm a pens fan I'd just say he went into the boards pretty weird and the coyotes player didn't do it on purpose he just wanted to finish his hit like all players do but Hope he heals back fast but good
I have huge respect for Letang; he has taken some major and debilitating hits in his career, and he keeps working his way back from injury.
He's fun to watch.
Clean hit
very similar to the foegle hit on oshie recently where it was a push, but also an awkward fall and stance that caused injury
A few years ago, when Artemi Panarin was a rookie with the Hawks, Panarin had, by himself beaten the Pens in back to back games.
Artemi is not a big guy, certainly snaller than Letaing, and with a minute or so left in the game, Letaing comes full steam cross ice looking to crush Panarin, who was able to avoid the hit more or less.
It was an obvious attempt to hurt the kid in revenge for beating the Pens twice in two days.
So, spare me your praise for this punk.
Not very Christian…
I was at this one almost in tears, glad Letang was ok eventually
