In a dramatic turn of events during tonight's game between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Montreal Canadiens, Nikita Kucherov caused Kaiden Guhle to bleed following a dirty hit which might result in a suspension from the NHL.
Kucherov, a contender for the Art Ross Trophy alongside Nathan MacKinnon and Connor McDavid, now risks missing out on the title if suspended.
The impact of the hit was visible as Guhle suffered bleeding from the mouth. Despite this, Guhle has shown tremendous skill throughout the season, effortlessly handling the toughest opponents in the NHL.
