Gotta see it: Karlsson destroys rookie with ugly head shot

During Saturday's game matchup between the San Jose Sharks and Los Angeles Kings, things got pretty ugly when star defenceman Erik Karlsson delivered a questionable hit after what seemed like a little revenge on Kings' Austin Wagner.


The hit occurred at the beginning of the 2nd period, Karlsson delivered an open ice hit on Austin Wagner. After the hit, Wagner had a hard time getting back to his feet, looking dazed and would in the end leave the game after spending a few seconds on the Kings' bench.

Have a look at the hit:

Karlsson will have a hearing tomorrow for illegal check to the head. In your opinion, if suspended, how many games is the hit worth?
