Canucks’ Edler ejected for kneeing Maple Leafs’ Hyman

Vancouver Canucks defenseman Alex Edler was handed a five-minute major and a game misconduct for kneeing Toronto Maple Leafs forward Zach Hyman on Sunday night.

The incident came at the end of a three-minute shift from Edler.

Hyman stayed down for a while and was eventually ruled out for the remainder of the game. He appeared to get hit in the right knee, which required surgery in 2019 to repair a torn ACL.
