Minnesota Wild in Grave Danger as Suspension Looms Over Star Forward

Ice hockey moments can become intense. Indeed, when it looks like these players are having a fantastic time on the ice, they are sweating under those sweaters, as each of them wants a dub for their respective team. Yesterday, during the match between the Ottawa Senators and the Minnesota Wild at Canadian Tire Centre, the home team absolutely dominated with a final score of 6-0.

However, a certain incident took place between Wild’s Ryan Hartman and the Senators’ Tim Stutzle that caused a lot of controversy in the community. Indeed, the star forward of Minnesota took matters into his own hands during the game, almost knocking out and causing his opponent an injury for which he was awarded a match penalty. But now, the suspension might be upon him as he gets himself ready for an in-person hearing.

So what actually happened on the ice at the Canadian Tire Centre? Pressure was piling up on the Minnesota Wild as they were losing the game 3-0 right before the end of the second period. And during a faceoff where Ryan Hartman was against Tim Stutzle, he knocked his opponent down and further pushed his head toward the ice, as seen in the video posted by Spittin’ Chiclets on X.

Indeed, it’s clearly visible how the Wild’s forward pushed Stutzle so hard on the ice that his helmet even gave up. This immediately caused the referee to take action and give Hartman the match suspension. But what about the Senators’ center? He kept playing the match even if he was bleeding, due to a cut right above his eye.

This is a developing report…
