For those who may have missed the play, Colorado Avalanche forward Nathan MacKinnon delivered a head shot to Vegas Golden Knights forward Nolan Patrick on Wednesday night that took him off of his feet and really shook him up. Here's a look at the replay:
Well, according to the Review Journal's David Schoen, it appears as though MacKinnon will not be fined or suspended as a result of his actions on the play.
I have a hard time believing, given what can be seen on the video, that MacKinnon intentionally meant to target Patrick's head. It looked more like he was trying to edge him out to win the puck race than anything.
