Last night in Montreal, as you all know by now, Pacioretty was hit in between the benches by Chara in last night's game against the Bruins. So tonight the Habs gave us a update.“Max Pacioretty has a severe concussion, as well as a fracture of the fourth cervical vertebrae, but it's not displaced,” explained Martin. “Max will remain at the hospital for further observation. There will be no other prognosis for the time being, but he will obviously be out indefinitely. The most important thing for our organization right now is Max’s recovery. We will continue following recommendations from the doctors and of course, Max and his immediate family would appreciate privacy in this matter.”
After the game, Chara said he didn't mean to injure Pacioretty and might be right but only he know. But watch the replay again. He gave Pacioretty an extra push which lead him to go into the glass. I think the NHL should have gave him a suspension. Especially since there is a history between these 2 players. Remember the Last time these teams played in Montreal? Pacioretty scored the Game winning goal in overtime and gave Chara a little tap to the back which caused a scrum. So overall I think Chara should have got suspended.
