That sequence is so unfortunate for Tavares. He attempts a shot which gets deflected off of Kuzmenko's stick and hits him in the face. He likely blinked at the exact moment Myers absolutely demolished him. Hence his body language showed he never braced for the hit. I'm pretty sure his eyes were closed when he gets hit.
clean hit but he had his head down. Yeah i think it was a bit uneccessary but the game is fast its just a reaction. No time to change your mind once you are committed.
It’s not a Tom Wilson hit. Jesus it’s hockey. Clean hit, his fault for not looking up. These happen all the time. Guaranteed there wouldn’t be a video on this if it was on a team like Minnesota (for example). Stfu lmao
Clearly clean and the person who said it was unnecessary, you are wrong Schenn was trying to set the tone and the organization is trying to create a tougher persona. Myers had to step up and say "Not in our house!" Dont blame Leaves fans for being upset by the hit. If it were Pettersson, we would have been pissed. Oh and YouTube guy…friendly fire got Austin Mathews and O'Reilly – canucks had nothing to do with it.

i thought it was a clean hockey hit and so did the refs who weren't doing the canucks any favors all night.
Clean, however the pylon does have a bit of a mean streak.
Myers has the size but zero skill.

Leaving his feet is not a good sign.
1:25 Plz god do not think of a Skyrim-joke!!
He jumped as he hit Tavares. You can't do that. Dirty hit imo
Lmao the leaf blowers have the dumbest coping techniques, good clean hit and gotta cry about it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 "Omg he could've killed him!!" 🤦
Yall are bitches. That was a badass hit that was just great stuff.
Well he did leave his feet…had JT been seriously injured, the NHL would've had no problem suspending Myers.
Leave it to leaf fans for whining about ever clean body check my god
This was shoulder to shoulder. Look at it from the front camera on wide angle. This is a legal check and not late. Clean hit
You f*cking idiots realize you're not allowed to leave your feet when delivering a hit right? Of course you don't…… You're f*cking idiots.
Funny how you failed to mention the huge hit from recently acquired Schenn on a Canucks player, early in the game. Clean hit all the way
dam that was big

Clean af, didn’t leave his feet until after impact and not late.
Ok I’m honestly tired of these videos
So dangerous
He's not o.k. – not feeling well at all.
That was an AWESOME hit! I delivered so many of those back in the day! Absolutely beautiful! 🙃
It was a clean hit. Especially for 6'8! Kinda hard not to hit anyone in the head at that height. 2 players colliding… sounds like a bad country song!
