Watch: Capitals' Johansson helped off ice after late hit by Letang

For the second straight game in the Washington Capitals-Pittsburgh Penguins series, a dangerous hit has led to a player being helped off the ice. This time, that player was Capitals forward Marcus Johansson.

Penguins defenseman Kris Letang received a two-minute penalty for interference after catching Johansson up high with a late hit during the first period of Game 3.

Johansson went directly to the dressing room, but returned to action early in the second.

After Letang served his penalty, he was immediately greeted by Daniel Winnik, who earned a two-minute penalty for slashing in his retaliation for the Johansson hit.

This hit comes just one day after Capitals defenseman Brooks Orpik was suspended three games for a late hit that injured Olli Maatta in Game 2.
