Standing at 6'2" and nearly 200 pounds, Edward's presence on the ice is formidable, drawing attention not only for his physical stature but also for his aggressive style of play.
While Edward's prowess with the puck is noteworthy, it's his physicality that truly sets him apart. However, it's not just his robust play that captures headlines; it's his notorious short fuse that often lands him in hot water.
This season, Edward has found himself suspended multiple times, and on Friday, his volatile temper once again reared its head.
Following an incident where he pushed an opponent into his own goalie, Edward took matters into his own hands, unleashing a flurry of punches despite being restrained by officials.
Despite the altercation, Edward somehow avoided ejection from the game. Instead, he was slapped with a rare triple minor for roughing, while his opponent, Markas Samenas, received a double minor.
The discrepancy in penalties raises eyebrows, leaving many puzzled by the outcome of the exchange. With Edward's history of on-ice outbursts, it's likely that this won't be the last time his temper flares up, especially as the playoffs heat up.
