Taylor Hall only fined by NHL DoPS for sucker punch that injured Toronto’s Ilya Lyubushkin
Tuesday night saw Boston Bruins forward Taylor Hall do his best WWE impression after taking a hit from Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Ilya Lyubushkin. Hall responded to the hit with a sucker punch from behind that connected flush on the Russian defenseman’s jaw before also shoving him to the ice.
Lyubushkin was injured on the play and did not return to the game. Hall was only assessed a minor penalty for roughing and it turns out that those two minutes in the box will be the only time he’ll miss for his actions.
