Los Angeles Kings forward Dustin Brown was assessed a five-minute major for kneeing and a game misconduct for this hit on Tampa Bay Lightning rookie defenseman Mikhail Sergachev on Saturday.

Brown was fined $10,000 on Jan. 19 for cross-checking Pittsburgh's Justin Schultz, and the NHL's Department of Player Safety will likely take a long look at this play as well.

Sergachev was helped off the ice and into the locker room following the hit, but was able to return.
