Player Safety holds a hearing for Mark Scheifele's hit on Jake Evans

DoPS does not specify whether this is an in-person hearing (covered through a Zoom call at the moment), which is usually reserved for suspensions that are five games or longer. Scheifele has no previous history of suspensions, which is taken into account when lengths of suspensions are determined.

For those who missed it, with less than a minute left in the game that Montreal was leading 4-2, Evans found himself behind the empty Winnipeg net with the puck and a clear path to scoring. As he came around the net to put the puck in, Scheifele laid him out with a hit that was clearly planned from quite a ways away. He as given a five-minute major for charging and a 10 minute misconduct. Evans would need a stretcher to get off the ice, but is said to be doing much better and spent Wednesday night at the hotel with his teammates rather than in hospital.
