Top NHL prospect suspended indefinitely for what looks like a clean hit
Brandt Clarke was selected by the LA Kings 8th overall in the 2021 NHL draft, he is considered one of the best up and coming defenceman, but it doesn't look like we will be seeing him for awhile.
After this hit, which from our view point, looks like a totally clean hit, the Ontario Hockey League has announced that Clarke has been suspended indefinitely for an "illegal check to the head".

The OHL policy is they announce an ''indefinite'' suspension until they can determine the appropriate amount of games for the suspension.
The OHL may have some different camera angles we are not seeing, but from the look of this hit, it looks totally clean.
