Jaw Breaking Check on Stuart

Brad Stuart, the man who usually dishes out destructive checks, is now out 6-8 weeks with a broken jaw.

During the Wings game against the Calgary Flames that took place on January 7th,  Stuart took a blindsided hit to the face by Tom Kostopoulos.



As we know, the NHL has been trying to eliminate blindside hits because they can result in very serious injuries much like this one.

Kostopoulos’s hit left Stuart bleeding on the ground. He was rushed off the ice by the medics. After receiving medical attention, they reported that Stuart’s jaw was broken, however he does not need surgery.

The NHL announced that Kostopoulos’s hit earned him a 6 game suspension. The suspension has led to a lot of controversy of whether the suspension was long enough or if he should have been suspended at all.
