Morgan Rielly Ejected For Dangerous Hit To The Head
In a dramatic conclusion to the Battle of Ontario, Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Morgan Rielly received a game misconduct for a forceful cross-check to the head of Ottawa Senators forward Ridly Greig.
Despite Greig's provocative play, Rielly's response drew immediate scrutiny, with the cross-check occurring after the play was dead and just seconds remaining on the clock.
Greig required assistance from the Senators' training staff, adding gravity to the incident. The NHL may impose additional discipline on Rielly, given the concerning nature of the play.
The clash underscores the intensity of the rivalry and raises questions about player conduct in high-pressure moments.
