Max Domi Hit with Supplemental Discipline Following Dirty Elbow on Garnet Hathaway
Toronto Maple Leafs forward Max Domi just got hit with supplemental discipline from the NHL Department Of Player Safety following a hit on Garnet Hathaway.
Max Domi was out for revenge following a situation involving Jake McCabe and Garnet Hathaway, although it resulted in Domi getting hit with a significant fine.
Toronto Maple Leafs forward Max Domi hit with a fine
In the clip down below, you can see Domi go after Hathaway who was playing with the puck along the boards.
As the Maple Leafs forward approached the Flyers player, he put his elbow up and then went right into the back of Hathaway's head.
It was as obvious as you can make it, and Domi was immediately sent to the box while the Flyers were completely outraged by how brazen the entire play was.
Well, the NHL Department of Player Safety has decided to respond to this mess, and they did so swiftly.
Just moments ago, it was revealed that Max Domi was being fined $5000 for his elbow on Hathaway. This is the maximum fine under the current CBA.
Maple Leafs fans are understandably upset about the fine given the fact that Hathaway didn't receive any punishment for his knee on Jake McCabe.
McCabe was injured on the play, yet Hathaway did not get a lick of supplemental discipline.
It is yet another example of the NHL Department of Player Safety allegedly having a bias against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Hopefully, Domi learns from the situation and tones down his physicality a bit as he has been playing too far on the edge as of late.
