During last night's matchup between the Calgary Flames and the Seattle Kraken, Flames center Martin Pospisil collided with Kraken defenseman Vince Dunn from behind, catching him off guard.

Today, news came in that the National Hockey League Player Safety wants to discuss the incident and consider potential disciplinary action.

«Calgary's Martin Pospisil will have a hearing tomorrow for boarding Seattle's Vince Dunn.»

Pospisil, who racked up seventeen penalty minutes in the game, is known for his aggressive style, but hits like this pose serious risks of injury.

The exact punishment remains uncertain, but since it's not an in-person hearing, it's likely he'll face a suspension of fewer than five games and maybe just a fine, which might feel like a gentle warning.
