A dick thing to do? It's called body contact, if a player has his head down, he knows what could happen, they teach you the first time you start contact, keep your head up, or you're going to get hammered. I mean, what's Sutton supposed to do, give him a pass? No it's his job to hit him, and if he gave him a pass it would send the wrong message about the Sens defence, is it shitty Leopold got hurt, for sure, will he learn a lesson from this, definitely, what's that lesson, keep your fuckin head up.
As for Sutton coming up, the guys 6'6"/250lbs, and Leopold was bent over to begin with, had Sutton came up into the hit, he would have flown over top of him.
This is about the best pic I can get at the point of impact, look how low Leopold is, and the angle that Sutton is coming in at.

I'm glad nobody went to my first post to point out the embarrasing prediction (typical of a Leaf fan).... Wait till next year I say. I'll root for Vancouver to get into the final.

Hehe, Leafs fans like us are the same every year Leto, we always think the Leafs will be battling for a spot in the post season, I honestly thought they had a shot like you said for the final spot, but just a collection of shitty play, bad goaltending, lazy players, but hopefully the young guys come back with the same energy they had at the end of the year.
Oh and fuck me, as decent as Kessel is, what a waste of a first rounder that was, the Leafs have to stop trading away first round picks for unproven players, seems in this day and age one good year makes them superstars, without actually proving anything.
