The Seattle Kraken beat the Calgary Flames last night, in a 4-2 victory.

In the last 5 minutes of the third period, Vince Dunn took a pass behind the net while facing the boards. Flames Martin Pospisil decided make a hit when Dunn had his back turned towards him and dangerously hit Dunn into the boards head first.

Just outright dangerous and should lead to a suspension. Even worse, it's not his first bad hit of the game.




Fans were criticizing the hit claiming on social media saying it was dangerous and to top that, Pospisil had made other dangerous hits during the game. Additionally, Kraken head coach Dave Hakstol called the hit garbage and said that he should have answered the bell afterwards but refused to.

"You're gonna run around like that, you probably need to answer when somebody comes at you and that didn't happen either. From there, I'll leave it to the league."


Pospisil will likely have a hearing regarding the hit and will end up getting suspended.
