An unusual scene took a very sad turn during the game between the Canadiens and the Panthers last night

Last night, during the game between the Montreal Canadiens and the Florida Panthers, we witnessed an unusual scene that took a very sad turn, as defenseman Joel Edmundson accidentally injured a linesman quite seriously.

It all started after a small spat between Radko Gudas and Edmundson, who was defending his young teammate Kirby Dach.

Edmundson sent a clear message to Gudas with a good cross-check.

Then defenseman Marc Staal got involved, dangerously throwing Edmundson on the ice, injuring an official in the process.


The referee in question appears to have suffered a knee injury and was in pain.
