It got intense in the recent showdown between the Ottawa Senators and the Florida Panthers.
Things took a heated turn when Zack MacEwen dished out an illegal hit to the head of Matthew Tkachuk, earning himself a match penalty. This automatically triggers a suspension from the Department of Player Safety.
