Jacob Trouba. Rarely, maybe twice in his career, have I been able to call a Trouba check truly clean. Usually they’re dirty, and otherwise they’re almost always clean “but”…
This is a clean “but” situation. His habit of extending out and up into hits has injured enough people. It’s time to make him stop.

Separate man from puck. Well within the rules. If you don't like it, go watch soccer. Hockey is a full contact sport.
Your takes on these last two videos are so bad, you just lost a subscriber.
He does not forget to pull out his elbow
This is a GREAT hit! There is no problem with this at all. Shouldn’t even make a video about it. Go do reviews of soccer hits because clearly you know nothing about hockey.
Are you saying the only thing that makes this hit dirty is that its a big hit?
The leap. Again. Charging. 4 out of 5 Troubas, especially leading with the elbow.
He’s an old time player, 10 years ago y’all would’ve been saying there’s nothing wrong with it.
It’s a clean hard hit. Your why the sport got so soft
Charging
There have been guys in this history of this league that don't care about putting the puck in the net, just about inflicting damage, Trouba is one of them.
Not sure what can be done.
