Chicago's Brett Connolly has hearing with NHL's Department of Player Safety
It looks like a suspension is coming for Brett Connolly of the Chicago Blackhawks. During a game against the Dallas Stars Saturday night, Connolly levelled Tanner Kero with a hit that was clearly interference as Kero had never touched the puck. Kero was taken off the ice on a stretcher. He was transported to hospital but said to be alert and responsive.
The NHL's Department of Player Safety has announced that Connolly will have a hearing on Sunday. It is not an in-person hearing, so it's likely any suspension won't be a lengthy one.
Connolly was given a five minute major for interference on the play, as well as a game misconduct. Dallas would go on to win in overtime 4-3.
