Canadiens' Guhle faces suspension for dirty slash on Flyers' Konecny
The NHL released an official statement, in which we learned that Kaiden Guhle will have a hearing for a sirty slash that the referees didn't call on the ice.
"Montreal's Kaiden Guhle will have a hearing today for slashing Philadelphia's Travis Konecny."
This kind of gesture isn't appreciated in the NHL. In addition, Guhle, with just over 100 games of experience in the League, went after Travis Konecy, one of the most respected player in Philadelphia.
While Guhle has never been suspended by the NHL, it is expected that he should serve a one or two game suspension for his gesture.
How long do you think he'll be suspended?
