The NHL made the official announcement a few minutes ago.
After Flyers' forward Hathaway called out Guhle in his post-game comments, it looks like the NHL's Department of Player Safety will act on the defenseman's dirty play.
After he got on the receiving end of a major hit by Konecny, Guhle decided to retaliate on the Flyers' veteran. Konecny was skating by the Habs' bench and Guhle extended his stick to slash him.
The play wasn't called by the referees.
Watch the video here:
The NHL's DoPS shared on X that Guhle will face a hearing today for slashing Konecny.
Here's the League's statement:
Guhle's clean slate will surely help him, but this kind of gesture is widely criticized in the NHL.
The Flyers players weren't happy, especially considering that he went after a well-respected member of their locker room.
Montreal and Philadelphia will meet again on the ice this season, on April 9th, and it promises to be an intense game.
More to come.
