On the evening of March 19th, 2023, the St. Louis Blues welcomed the Winnipeg Jets to their home ice at the Enterprise Center for an intense hockey match. In a game that would end in a 3-0 victory for the St. Louis Blues, tensions ran high throughout the course of the match.

Following the final whistle, while some Blues players celebrated their win, Torey Krug, a defenseman for the team, was noticeably absent from the ice. Krug had been ejected from the game during the final minutes of play, leaving his team short-handed.

The reason for Krug's ejection stemmed from a heated moment during the game when he came to the defense of his teammate. Krug had been engaged in a physical altercation with a player from the Winnipeg Jets, resulting in a minor penalty for roughing. However, Krug's frustration boiled over when the referee handed him an additional two-minute penalty, which eventually resulted in his ejection from the game.

- 2-minute roughing
- 2-minute roughing
