Ryan Heartman has followed the opposite player directly into the ice, so Minnesota Wild Forward must face his actions in a 10 -game suspension.
At the moment of the second term of Saturday, Wild ran a member of Senator Ottawa 3-0, and Hartman and his team were desperately needing sparks.
However, Hartman's Senator Tim Study was far from NHL's eyes in the imminent confrontation.
“When the pack is dropped, Hartman immediately removes his right hand from the stick and tilts forward to win the confrontation.” NHL said in a video explaining the punishment. “Heartman takes free hands, puts his forearm behind the stutzul's head, uses weight to intentionally drive Stutsul down, and first slashes his face into the ice.”
In this play, STUTZLE exhaled from the cut on his eyes while the Hartman was emitted from the game.
Stützle played through the cut and recorded two assists in the final period of Ottawa's 6-0 victory.
“Hartman claims that he is trying to regain balance using his hands to regain balance using Stützle for support, and claims that falling to ice is a coincidence,” NHL said. Ta.
The 30 -year -old Hartman has a history of facing the supplementary field from NHL, and the league has named him “repeated criminals.”
Through 663 career games, including playoffs, Hartman has been finished seven times, and now four of them have been suspended five times since 2023.
The 10 -game suspension is the longest in Hartman's career, and NHL has handed the player since 2018.
According to a group negotiator between the players and the league, the repeated criminals are “strictly punished by new violations.”
Hartman, who scored 7 goals and 10 assists in 48 games this season, takes 48 hours to appeal to suspension.
But for now, he will go out to a penguin on March 9 in Minnesota.
Currently, the wild is third in the central category.
