Tuukka's hair in this year's photo is phenomenal. He looks like a character model from Oblivion.
 
You finish the check...that's what these players are taught at a very early age. He finishes it while the opponent is making a move and it looks far worse. He should have braced for the hit. Again, it's a size mismatch. Chara looks at least a foot taller.

No, not all players/teams. The Bruins are all about finishing checks no matter what. Other teams will go for the puck instead of the hit.

Chara's size doesn't mean he can hit smaller players in the head. Once again, should have been a penalty. Hits to the head should always be a penalty.

LOL holy shit
 
The Chara cop out on his size is such bullshit, it's still his responsibility to to hit in safe way using his size. Just because he ate ninja turtle ooze as a kid doesn't mean he can kill people and get away with it.

I agree. Should have been a penalty. I don't buy into the announcer's nonsense hyping the situation.

It's not the "Bruins". You finish checks when your momentum is leading you towards the boards. In most cases, it leads to less injury. The player on the board is anticipating it and ready to absorb.
 
Too bad San Jose got their first loss tonight, was hoping we would be the ones to win it saturday! Budaj in the net Monday I guess against the Rangers.
 
Again this team loses to teams they shouldn't and beats teams that are better then them. They gotta stop that if they ever want to be considered a top team.
