It was a crazy game between the New Jersey Devils and New York Islanders today. Devils' defenceman PK Subban uncharacteristically went after Islanders' Oliver Wahlstrom. This occured after Wahlstrom laid a huge hit on New Jersey Devils' Captain, and their best player Jack Hughes.

Subban then lost it on Wahlstrom. Subban attacked Wahlstrom, and earned himself 27-minutes in penalties and an early shower, as he received the boot from the game from the officials.

The Islanders were not at all pleased with how Subban conducted himself in that exchange, but they were unable to enact any vengeance due to the ejection.

Following the game Islanders head coach Barry Trotz would appear to mock Subban when he insinuated that the Devils defenseman was lucky the officials removed Subban before the Islanders got them some payback.

He was very fortunate he got kicked out of the game.

I'm sure this chapter isn't over with Subban. He could have a long night the next time he plays the Islanders.
