BREAKING: The NHL Severely Punishes Morgan Rielly

The verdict is in for Morgan Rielly!

Department of Player Safety Suspends Maple Leafs Top Defenseman Morgan Rielly 5 Games After Hit on Greig

On Saturday, the Maple Leafs faced the Ottawa Senators and a major incident unfolded in the last seconds of the game.

Senators' Ridley Greig scored in an empty net with a slap-shot, while being only a few feet from the goal and alone in the zone.

After the goal, Rielly landed a dangerous hit on Greig, which was reviewed by the NHL's DoPS.


The hearing, held earlier today, led to a verdict.

Rielly will be suspended five games.



The Leafs will play their first game without him tonight against the St. Louis Blues.

Do you agree with the length Rielly's suspension?
