@@Dylan-Rodger Just because he skated away from it, doesn't make it any less of a "dangerous hit". If you go 100mph into a concrete wall, you don't say, "that could've been dangerous" just because you didn't come out severely injured. It was dangerous, period. Just how you think is a sociopath type of mentality. If you was knocked out unconscious then it's deemed dangerous, but if he skates away then, it's just fine to you!?... That's illogical. So any head trauma sustained is fine as long as the player doesn't feel the effects of a concussion right away. GTFOH, you know nothing about anything. Stop commenting!
