In the minutes I've watched this game, I hate the Dallas Stars and their fans.

Looked like straight to the face. Was thinking nose but didn't see blood on the ice. The way his head snapped back, for a guy with a recent concussion, looked bad. If it's a concussion, he doesn't come back until probably the 2nd round at least.

i hope thats sarcasm
not at all. it was a head on hit, so the new rules don't apply. letang dipped his head going into the play. there is no way for the dallas player to make a safe hit on the play, and since it's head on, he is not responsible for the safety of the puck carrier
HAHAHAHAH wowwwww
yea it was a HEAD on hit alright, he hit letang in the head with an elbow as you could clearly see on one of the angles. Its not even debatable honestly after seeing that shot of it. Not sure how you can say that was clean, i dont care if letangs head is down or not he was elbowed in the head
ok, in that situation, the rules say that the puck carrier is responsible for his own safety. headshots were not banned... just headshots from blind spots. this was not a blind spot.
i can say it was clean because i understand the rule.
Nystrom hit him in the head with his elbow. Unless you are suggesting human beings have no control over their elbows, I guessing it was intentional contact.

Staal and Martin blew coverage on that one... one of them needs to take Benn instead of standing next to him

Do the Pens lead the league in getting scored on first? Sometimes, it acts as a catalyst to get them firing so hope that is the case tonight.

It looked like Staal and Martin were in the general vicinity of Benn but no one tied up his stick

I would hope not, no matter what the short-term observation says. He seemed fine in Montreal too.

Please no - every point counts right now, but this isn't a conference game. Let him sit and evaluate him. NO need to come back in this game.

I hope so but judging by his reaction, it didn't look good.
