Every now and again, however, players find themselves in either a foot race for a puck or a puck battle and sometimes you need to take a hit to try to make a play. Sometimes you make the play, and sometimes you get pasted into the boards. On Saturday, it was the latter for Caufield.
Torey Krug, not the biggest guy himself, standing the same 5'9 as Caufield, has a bit more sandpaper to his game and, unfortunately for Caufield, he has almost 30 pounds on him, nearing 190 lbs. Caufield even quote-tweeted the video shared by Spittin Chiclets, with "Ouch..." as the text.
That one looked like it hurt. Credit to Caufield though. He kept playing and ended the game with over 15 minutes of ice time. He also had a 3-point night.
