Montreal Canadiens defenseman Kaiden Guhle has been suspended one game after he slashed Flyers forward Travis Konecny in their game today.
The 22-year-old Montreal Canadiens has had an up and down season in his second year with the club. He has 6 goals and 21 points in 68 games, a slight step back from his scoring pace in his rookie season. However, he's taken on a bigger role with the club and improved defensively. That being said, his temperment got himself in trouble today as he slashed Travis Konecny from the bench as he was skating by.
