Former Oiler faces potential suspension after brutal elbow to the head

During the opening minute of the third period, Tanev was attempting to clear the puck from his own end, Larsson decided to throw his elbow into his head which dropped Tanev to the ice. The referees wasted no time in throwing Larsson out of the remainder of the game by giving him a 5-minute elbowing major and a 10-minute game misconduct.

Stars right winger Joe Pavelski made the Kraken pay as he scored a power play goal on the major. There is no word from the NHL yet if Larsson faces any suspension or fine.

The Stars ended up winning the game 3-0.
