One of the biggest hits of the year!

Alexei Emelin is known for his big hits. Tonight he added another one and it gives you an idea why his hits are referred to as Emelin BOOMs!

He caught Paul Stastny with his head down on his backhand looking to dump the puck in. Emelin had Stastny lined up and leveled him with a solid forearm hit that sent Paul flying parallel to the ice. Good on Stastny for getting right up after the hit.

Emelin has a knack for picking his spots for a big hit and he definitely did that tonight. It has been a very chippy game tonight between the Blues and Canadiens so we will have to wait and see if there are any more big hits coming in the third period of that game.

Here is the Emelin hit:
