During their Saturday afternoon faceoff, the Buffalo Sabres and the Colorado Avalanche found themselves embroiled in controversy.
The pivotal moment occurred when Cale Makar faced a perilous hit by Kyle Okposo, which violently thrust him against the boards.
Despite the egregious nature of the hit, officials chose not to penalize the play, leading to Nathan MacKinnon's explosive reaction.
Reacting to the lack of action, MacKinnon was penalized with a two-minute unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and subsequently ejected from the game.
