This was right after Scott Hannan scored the goal. He left after with a neck injury.
Here is the video (about the 3:25 mark):

Wow, that was pretty brutal. I watched the game and never even noticed it.

Yeah he should have. He lined up an unsuspecting opponent who just scored a goal

Not very late of a hit…but still a bad one, stupid, useless, etc…worthy of a one game suspension, not two. I think he got two games for the actual injury.
I noticed some of the reports say “as he was celebrating the goal…”, sorry it was only a second after the shot, he did not know it went in yet.

I just watched the highlight film and saw the hit. I rewinded it several times. It looked more like a self defense hit than an intentional hit. Briere being the smaller player would have taken it in the face. Either way he should have tried to avoid the hit and a ‘knee to knee’ blow or stayed on his skates and taken the hit to his face.
