Video: Red Wings forward shaken up after ugly hit from behind along the boards.

Red Wings forward Teemu Pulkkinen was the victim of a pretty ugly hit on Thursday night.

While attempting to chase the puck into the corner Pulkkinen was hit from behind by Arizona Coyotes player Martin Hanzal, who is earning somewhat of a reputation for ugly plays like this one.

Hanzal had plenty of time to pull up from the hit, instead he opted to stalk Pulkkinen and hit him at arguably the worst possible time pancaking him into the boards and bending his body in an akward angle.

Pulkkinen understanbly appared hurt on the play and quickly headed to the bench,
