Marc-Andre Fleury explains what Jordan Binnington to break hockey's code

Binnington jumped up and struck Hartman with his blocker, prompting Marc-Andre Fleury to charge down the ice to confront him. Despite being prevented by officials from reaching Binnington, Fleury's uncharacteristic behavior left many questioning what had caused him to react in such a way.

In post-game interviews, Fleury revealed that Binnington had deliberately hit him below the belt, leading to speculation that Binnington may face disciplinary action for his actions. While goalies are allowed to defend themselves, deliberately striking another player is not acceptable. Some are suggesting that Binnington may finally face the consequences of his actions.

The League has subsequently announced that Binnington will be called to a hearing regarding the incident.
