Player crushes his opponent with a devastating open-ice hit.

The NHL won't like the look of this hit.

During Saturday's Stadium Series' action between the Philadelphia Flyers and Pittsburgh Penguins, Flyers' defenseman Brandon Manning took out unsuspecting Penguins' forward Jake Guentzel with a high, late hit.

The NHL's Department of Player Safety began reviewing the hit immediately after it occurred, and it's possible that they may incur further discipline.

Here is the hit in question:
