Detroit's Darren Helm On Both Sides Of A Big Hit
Detroit's Darren Helm On Both Sides Of A Big Hit
Another week of hockey, another week of NHL hits. We round up the best checks from players like Darren Helm, Dustin Byfuglien, and Tom Wilson.
By Jacob Messing
With another week of hockey in the books, FloHockey has compiled some of the biggest body checks from the past seven days.
There were a handful of big hits when the Winnipeg Jets visited the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday, so we’ll start with two big ones from there.
Winnipeg’s Dustin Byfuglien catches Detroit’s Darren Helm with his head down (and maybe in the head); Helm then runs over Branden Tanev as he goes for a shift change.

Reverse hits are the best hits.

This defenseman has definitely been taking notes from the Red Wings’ Niklas Kronwall.
