Definitely does show intent- every professional player knows WHERE those posts are.

...shows no intent. If anything should be changed, it's the design of the rink.

Chara is not pushing his face or his head. He is pushing his arm, and they are MOVING. It is beyond unfortunate that Pacioretty's head hit the pole, but a snapshot in time does not accurately reflect the nature of this hit. A thorough review of this hit s

That is sick and the NHl did nothing to Chara. That poor kid. Chara should have gotten something the piece of garbage.

@jillmanderson Hes got a broken vertebra and a severe concussion i think his career may be over.

lol @americanpride every arena has the same basic ice design :P the hand on pacioretty's head says it all

LOL @ Apride, you clearly no shit about hockey, a top Dman like Chara knows the rink design

How can anyone look at this picture and not think it was on purpose. He wasnt fined/suspended

A...pride21 - Your as dumb as the rest of your nation. Pull your collective heads out your asses!

@jillmanderson "indefinitely" :(

I think your opinion means shit! Charles. If you take a still of any NHL hit they all look the same. Blame the company who designed the rink.

Biggest dumb f*** in this league!

So nasty ..... How long with Max be out? Will he ever come back? He was out cold for a good 5-7 minutes on the ice.
