Raffi Torres levels Jarrett Stoll, faces hearing with Shanahan
San Jose Sharks forward Raffi Torres has a track record of laying down some questionable hits and his hit on Los Angeles Kings forward Jarrett Stoll is his latest one. At first the hit didn’t seem to be that bad, but upon further review it seems as though Torres initial point of contact is with Stoll’s chin.

Brendan Shanahan is cool enough to pose for a pic with a “Shanahan You Suck!” sign

On the flip side, maybe his smile is saying “once this photoshoot is done with I’m totally going to hand your ass to you and your...
