As the nation celebrates Hockey Day in Canada, the anticipation builds for the matchup between the Winnipeg Jets and the Ottawa Senators this afternoon.

There's always an extra buzz in the air when games align with special days like this.

In the early moments of the 1st period, the intensity escalated as Senators captain Brady Tkachuk found himself in the spotlight, forced to answer for a hit that has sparked divided opinions among fans.

Brenden Dillon, not one to let such hits go unanswered, confronted Tkachuk, resulting in a brief but decisive fight. Dillon clearly emerged victorious, prompting officials to intervene when Tkachuk's helmet went flying.

The hit itself raised eyebrows for its perceived dirtiness � delivered from behind with Tkachuk leaving his feet. The response from Dillon and the Jets echoed the sentiment that certain plays demand immediate accountability on the ice. The incident adds a layer of drama to an already charged Hockey Day in Canada.
