In an unusual conclusion to tonight's Ottawa Senators and Toronto Maple Leafs game, the arena lights momentarily went out, prompting NHL analyst Paul Bissonnette to raise suspicions and accuse one team of attempting to cheat.

Bissonnette voiced his concerns, suggesting that the Senators intentionally flickered the lights while pulling their goaltender in a last-minute effort to distract Toronto's Martin Jones. In his critique, he even went as far as comparing it to "Belichick type stuff" and urged NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman to investigate, possibly penalizing the team with a draft pick.

Even respected NHL insider Darren Dreger acknowledged the odd timing of the lighting malfunction, describing it as "oddly distracting."

While the incident may not result in any serious consequences, the Senators will likely need to provide an explanation. As more details emerge, we'll keep you updated on whether this peculiar incident develops further.
