Asked Auston Matthews’ agent, Judd Moldaver about his response to the ruling.

Here is his reply:

“In light of the obvious severity of the play, I am disappointed and shocked the league would allow such a ruling. A phone hearing and 5 games is laughable and preposterous.

Players and fans deserve better. The Player Safety Department should be suspended.”
