The National Hockey League's Department of Player Safety has addressed the situation involving Minnesota Wild forward Ryan Hartman.
Earlier reports hinted at a potential suspension looming for Hartman, and now the Department has scheduled a hearing for tomorrow to address his alleged unsportsmanlike conduct.
Minnesota's Ryan Hartman will have a hearing tomorrow for unsportsmanlike conduct for his actions during Saturday's game against Vegas.
While this news may cast a shadow over Hartman and the Wild, there could be a glimmer of hope. Initial indications suggest that Hartman's penalty might not fall under the more severe abuse of official rule, potentially leading to a lighter suspension.
However, the final decision rests with the NHL's disciplinary arm, leaving uncertainties surrounding Hartman's fate.
