VIDEO: Dumba blasts Kane in open ice
@TheHockeyNews/Twitter
Minnesota Wild defender Matt Dumba saw a free shot on Patrick Kane - the NHL's MVP-in-waiting - Sunday night, and boy, did he take it.
Watch this heavy open-ice collision, which saw both Dumba and Kane nearly lose their helmets as they tangle up in the wreckage.
Though contact is made with Kane's head - which was hanging dangerously low as he fixated on the puck in his skates - Dumba won't be punished for the blow. The NHL has already deemed that in the case, contact was unavoidable.
