"Gudas delivered an illegal knee-on-knee hit on Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews during a March 12 contest. Matthews suffered a Grade 3 MCL tear and quad contusion as a result."
"It's expected to be a physical affair, as the Maple Leafs were universally criticized for their lack of physical response, following Gudas' hit to Matthews."
"We should've had four guys in there doing something about it, but it didn't happen. But I thought they responded in the third."
Radko Gudas confirmed his participation in the game against the Toronto Maple Leafs despite dealing with a lower-body injury. Gudas previously wore a walking boot after delivering a knee-on-knee hit to Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews, resulting in Matthews suffering a Grade 3 MCL tear. The NHL Department of Player Safety's George Parros is expected to attend the game. The Maple Leafs faced criticism for their lack of physical response after the hit, with head coach Craig Berube expressing disappointment over the team's reaction during the incident.
