Nico Hischier gets shaken up by Rasmus Dahlin

During tonight's game between the Buffalo Sabres and New Jersey Devils, Rasmus Dahlin executed a significant reverse hit on Nico Hischier in the 1st period. As Hischier closed in, Dahlin decelerated and delivered a powerful reverse hit that appeared to land perfectly.

A Twitter user named DaveyUpper pointed out that the hit seemed to knock Hischier out for a brief moment. Although Hischier quickly regained his balance, tempers started to rise between the two teams.

Despite the altercation, the only penalty given was to Hischier for roughing. The Buffalo Sabres emerged victorious with a score of 5-4.
