The Calgary Flames’ breakout line of Johnny Gaudreau, Jiri Hudler and Sean Monahan keep scoring and scoring this season. You never know when an ill-fated hit could mess that up, though.

Puck Daddy’s Greg Wyshynski labels the hit as “predatory.” Is that accurate?
On the bright side, it seems like Monahan is OK.
