Rasmus Andersson leaves his feet to hit Laine in the head right at the buzzer. Not a good look. Gudbranson jumped Andersson, gotta think the league will look at this one.

Great night for the #Flames
The Blue Jackets won the game 3-1, which makes the hit even worse as there was no reason for Andersson to try and extend the hit after the play ended.
