Video Confirms Multiple Panthers Players Were Targeting Matthew Knies
The Panthers are in a good position, having won the first two games in their series against the Maple Leafs.
But they won by playing dirty. At least, that's how Sam Bennett played when he injured Matthew Knies and cross-checked Michael Bunting.

We got another proof that Knies was targeted, before he was injured by Bennett.
Video Confirms Multiple Panthers Players Were Targeting Knies
Not long before he had to leave the game after the dangerous play by Bennett, Matthew Tkachuk was also playing dirty and tried to injured Knies.
At least, on this play, Tkachuk got a two-minutes penalty for charging.
These back-to-back hits could have resulted in the concussion that will keep Knies away from the ice for a long time.
Another miss by the Department of Player Safety. One can wonder how they keep missing incidents...
As reported by Maple Leafs Daily -
Another Panther attempted to injure Matthew Knies before the Sam Bennett incident
