VIDEO: Bruins' Torey Krug Absolutely Destroys Robert Thomas With Vicious Hit in Game 1

The Boston Bruins and St. Louis Blues aren't holding back in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Bruins defenseman Torey Krug absolutely obliterated Blues center Robert Thomas after the two got tied up in the defensive zone.

Adding to the ruthlessness of the hit is the fact that Krug laid the hit Thomas without a helmet.

He came flying down the ice like a heat-seeking missile. It's clear that from the moment he got up, he had one thing on his mind, and that was knocking Thomas out of his skates.

The two had been battling, and even exchanged a series of slashes and engaged in a wrestling match, all of which went without a whistle from the refs. After dealing with him earlier, Krug decided to finish Thomas off with the brutal blow.

If there's one thing to be learned here, it's that it just isn't wise to anger Torey Krug.
