Ondrej Kase collides with referee after scoring breakaway goal

Toronto Maple Leafs right winger Ondrej Kase collided with a referee immediately after scoring a breakaway goal during Friday night's game against San Jose. 

It happened in the second period with the Sharks holding a 2-1 lead. With the Sharks on offense inside the Maple Leafs blue line, Kase blocked a shot by Sharks center Tomas Hertl from the point. The puck stayed right in front of Kase, leading to a solo breakaway opportunity. As Kase scored his first goal as a Maple Leaf, he had no time to avoid referee Wes McCauley, who was trailing the play and found himself following Kase a bit too closely, which led to the awkward collision.

 

McCauley dropped to the ice to avoid the brunt of it, and Kase leaped at the last second and fell over McCauley. Kase seemed a bit irritated as it ruined the moment. It could have been much worse as someone could have gotten hurt.  However, McCauley probably could have gave Kase a bit more room to work with.

Unfortunately, the Leafs were unable to build on the momentum of Kase's game-tying goal, as the Sharks scored just over a minute later and went on to win the game 5-3.  The Sharks remain undefeated after 4 games, while the Leafs fell to 2-2-1 on the season.

Kyle Clifford destroys Dean Kukan with huge hit

Toronto Maple Leafs left winger Kyle Clifford destroyed Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Dean Kukan with a bone-crushing hit during Tuesday's Game 2 of their NHL Eastern Conference Qualifier series.

It happened just two minutes into the first period as the puck was dumped into the Blue Jackets zone. Kukan took control of the puck and avoided a check attempt by Maple Leafs right winger Kasperi Kapanen, but let the puck get a bit too far ahead of him. Kukan chased the puck down and was able to pass it to a teammate as Clifford was lining him up for the big hit. Clifford launched himself into Kukan and absolutely crushed him.

No penalty was called. Kukan was slow to get up and headed to the locker room after ending his shift. He did return briefly later in the game, but finished with only seven and a half minutes of ice time.

It was that kind of game for the Blue Jackets as the Maple Leafs won the game 3-0 to even the series at one game apiece.
