Just a few days ago, we reported on how
Larkin hit AJ Spellacy of the Chicago Blackhawks. Overall, it was a pretty brutal hit that fans did not appreciate one bit. Larkin now has a bit of a history when it comes to cheap shots, and there are many out there who believe it is a bad sign of what is to come. Once a player builds a history, it is hard to change that perception. Moreover, as a player, once you build a bad habit, it is hard to break from it. Ultimately, it is a vicious cycle.
