Things got heated between the Florida Panthers and Tampa Bay Lightning today after one Panthers defenseman made a dangerous hit.
Kulikov Given Game Misconduct After High Hit On Lightning Forward
The Panthers thought they had scored to make the game 3-1 Lightning, but instead the worst possible outcome happened. The referees immediately waived the goal off as they called Dmitry Kulikov for a major penalty for illegal check to the head on Conor Sheary.
Dmitry Kulikov gets a match penalty for an illegal check to the head AND Florida gets their goal waived off 😅
Following the play, chaos broke out as everyone on the ice became engaged in a proper line brawl. The Lightning clearly were not happy about the hit on Sheary.
The Lightning currently lead the Panthers 4-2 at the end of the 2nd period. This game has suddenly become must-watch television for everyone outside of Florida, so be sure to tune in to see how it ends.
