It looks like Dustin Brown is already in preseason form. Brown, a forward for the LA Kings, displayed a high level of truculence with a check on San Jose Sharks player Logan Couture.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Head Butt? In all seriousness though this hit definitely looks questionable. Let’s take a look from another angle.

That pretty much looks like a head butt. Hell, that would be an illegal hit in the NFL too. No penalty was called on the play and Couture only suffered a cut on his nose. Too early to tell if this will be deserving of a phone call, but it definitely adds more fire to the this California rivalry.
