NHL Video: Ryan Reaves Ejected For His Hit On Tom Wilson

Jesse Granger: Ryan Reaves after the game on his hit on Tom Wilson: “I thought he was just looking at his pass, and ran into a lion in the jungle.”

SinBin.vegas: Reaves was told by the ref that he was given a game misconduct for the hit because Wilson was injured. Rule:

“When a player has been assessed a major penalty for any of the infractions listed in the Reference Tables – Table 7 – Summary of Major Penalties that Result in an Automatic Game Misconduct When There is an Injury to the Face or Head (page 137) and his opponent has suffered an injury to the face or head, a game misconduct must also be assessed.
