Last night in the 3rd period of Game 5 in Winnipeg between the Jets and Stars tempers started to boil over.
During a scrum near the Dallas bench the Stars captain Jamie Benn and Jets associate captain Mark Scheifele got into it.
We discussed this post-game on the IC Post-Game Show following the Jets win and didn’t think it would merit anything more than a potential fine and that’s just what happened.
NHL Player Safety put this out this morning:
“Dallas’ Jamie Benn has been fined $5,000, the maximum allowable under the CBA, for roughing Winnipeg’s Mark Scheifele late in Thursday night’s game.”
Should set up a fun Game 6 in Dallas tomorrow night.
