In a recent Leafs vs. Rangers game, Jake McCabe, a former Chicago Blackhawk, stood out with a hit that could be the highlight of the season. Although the Leafs won 7-3, McCabe's massive hit on Ryan Lindgren was a major moment. Lindgren hit the ice, disrupting the Rangers' momentum in the Leafs' zone.
The aftermath got intense as Mika Zibanejad from the Rangers took on McCabe. It almost turned into a full fight, and Zibanejad got a double minor for it. Despite the scuffle, McCabe's hit on Lindgren was considered clean by NHL standards.
McCabe's impactful play added a physical element to the game, making it clear that he's a force to be reckoned with on the ice. The collision left a lasting impression on both opponents and fans, showcasing McCabe's ability to make a significant impact.
