The 3 best things about this GIF of Brayden Schenn punching his teammate in the face

Stand down, Player Safety. The Flyers were joking around.

Hockey is a pretty dangerous sport, all things considered. Apparently not only do players have to watch out for their well-being on the ice, but the walk from the locker room out is fair game, too.

That’s what Flyers forward Nick Cousins found out when teammate Brayden Schenn took a joking swing at his head before Philadelphia’s game against Detroit.

We’re not sure what we love best about this GIF. So, let us list the ways!

  • The casual way Schenn turns to deliver the cuff to the head of Cousins, almost as if he was looking to fist bump a fan instead.
  • Cousins’ clear smirk before the hit that seemingly doesn’t leave his face as he adjusts his helmet afterwards.
  • The reaction of the blonde girl against the glass as this entire sequence transpires.

Actually, that might be the best part.

Yep. Best part.
