Alex Chiasson To Have Hearing With Department Of Player Safety

March 2, 2021 at 9:53 am CDT | by Gavin Lee 5 Comments

The Department of Player Safety has some work to do and the Edmonton Oilers may have to make a lineup change. Alex Chiasson has a hearing today to determine supplemental discipline for his cross-check on Toronto Maple Leafs forward Jimmy Vesey. The incident occurred at the very end of last night’s game and resulted in both a major penalty and misconduct for Chiasson, though he needed to serve neither due to the game being over.

It’s not clear at this point if Vesey suffered an injury on the play. The Oilers were visibly frustrated at the end of the game after losing two straight to the Maple Leafs, failing to score a goal in either game. Chiasson will, in all likelihood, pay for that frustration by having to sit out at least a game and forfeit part of his salary.

In this unique schedule, the two teams will actually do battle again tomorrow night. The Oilers will be forced to make at least one change to their lineup, though perhaps that was coming anyway after being shutout in consecutive games.

    The worst part is that he did it when the game was already done! Where was the fight during the game when it mattered!!? Kudos to the Leafs for playing within their plan

    I never saw the cross check but how is it different from dropping the gloves and getting some punches on a defenceless player only results in a minor penalty and a Max fine? A cross check can be a game suspension but throwing punches is minor penalty and a fine. Jesus

      The reason it was a suspension is because the cross check was at head level and took place after the game ended. It had nothing to do with the game and was not a hockey play at all. You could see on replay he blatantly skates up to Vesey with no provocation and delivers the cross check. Mindless play.
