BREAKING: Department of Player Safety Cracks Down on Leafs Forward
In one of the craziest games of the entire 2023 campaign, a lot of things happened.
Auston Matthews took part in his first fight, against fellow member of the 60-goal club Steven Stamkos.
Ryan O'Reilly tied up the game with minutes to go, and Morgan Rielly finished it off in overtime.
Brayden Point miraculously returned to the game after a crushing hit.
And if you ask the department of player safety, apparently Sam Lafferty did something too!
Lafferty Fined
After a cross-check on Ross Colton, Sam Lafferty received the maximum allowable fine from the department of player safety.
Toronto's Sam Lafferty has been fined $3,108.11, the maximum allowable under the CBA, for Cross-checking against Tampa Bay's Ross Colton.
