Looks like a whole lot of principal contact directly to the head but Trouba always seems to get away with that I guess because he’s tall, my problem is he never makes an effort to get low and drive up through the chest he just shoulders guys directly in the face with a rock hard plastic shoulder pad. Clean or dirty though a devil should have came and cross checked him to the face, a one or two game suspension would have been worth it showing you aren’t going to let a predatory hit like that go and yes predatory hits can still be technically clean. Trouba delivers these hits with the sole purpose of injuring guys and the way he lights up heads so often he’s very effective at it.

The problem is not whether the hit was clean in which it was, it is the timing. That stick check forced Meier to put his head down. It’s entertaining but the hit accomplished nothing in the game. It also shows that trouba can make big hits on players who are getting checked by his teammates and are distracted.

Watch the play donkey. Dudes head was up. They were on the pp and timo was the puck carrier entering the zone. Anyone with this job plays the sport with their heads up bud. Trouba flew on to the ice in a hurry cause he saw the play coming into his dzone..timo could not see his body. He saw 3 other white j’s surrounding him and in charges trouba straight to his dome.

Bud there’s a difference with your head being down or looking down with your eyes. And don’t tell me about the sport bro. In fact I’ve played several games against trouba when he was a young buck on ntdp. I’m aware of the collisions. Point is still trouba making the choice to not lower his stance several inches to avoid hurting a guys brain.

i am not sure on any of trouba's hits. what makes it hard for me to figure out if his hits are clean is how the nhl defines "principal point of contact"? i guess if principal point does NOT equal first point of contact then i guess this is clean. does anyone know what exactly principal point of contact means?
@dylancampbell52203 Жыл бұрын
Where point of contact would be had Meier been completely upright. Essentially they can’t just say “hits must go through chest” because there are many instances where a person will either fall or lower themselves before getting hit, and at that point there is nothing the person making the hit can do other than go through the head. If you watch this hit, it appears that Meier is more upright as Trouba begins the process of making the hit, and then Meier starts to bend down to shoulder height and at that point there is nothing Trouba can do outside of finishing the check.
