Toronto Maple Leafs forward Zach Hyman had a hearing with the NHL department of player safety on Sunday following his hit on Boston Bruins defenceman Charlie McAvoy.
Hyman was given an interference major on the play in Toronto’s 6-3 loss in Boston on Saturday night.
McAvoy had cleared the puck out from behind his own goal-line and was watching the play unfold when Hyman hit him, knocking the Bruins defenceman to the ice.
McAvoy had already missed 20 games this season with a concussion.
