Evgeny Kuznetsov was listed as questionable for tonight's game, but it's likely he's going to be out of the lineup going forward. It is very likely Kuznetsov will be hearing from the NHL Department of Player Safety.
During the second period of tonight's game a frustrated Kuznetsov slashed Vancouver Canucks forward Kyle Burroughs in the face with a brutal two hand slash. After Burroughs falls to the ice Kuznetsov gives him a cross check for good measures.
Kuznetsov only received two minutes for this play, but upon league review he'll like receive a suspension for this intentional act.
