The NHL is by far the fastest, most physical league in the world when it comes to ice hockey. Tonight Leafs defenseman Jake McCabe showed once again why you have to keep your head up in this league. <h2>McCabe Blows Up Lindgren With Massive Body Check</h2> The play came as the Rangers were attempting to enter the Leafs zone. Lindgren was carrying the puck across the blueline when he then turned his head to make a drop pass after gaining the zone. McCabe was already lining him up for a hit and he went through with it, catching Lindgren looking the other way with a massive clean hit to the chest. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/RinkRatReport/status/1734760716630925779'> </a></blockquote></div> <q>An absolute beauty of a hit from Jake McCabe. There is a big part of me that really enjoys old school hockey.
