Despite some uproar on both sides, it looks like neither Tampa Bay Lightning center Brian Boyle nor New York Islanders' defenseman Thomas Hickey will face discipline for a couple of controversial hits in Tuesday night's game.
Boyle made a high hit on Hickey in overtime. The defenseman tumbled to the ice and couldn't get back into the play in time as Boyle grabbed a loose puck and fired in the game-winner. A source confirmed to ESPN's Joe McDonald that the league will not hold a hearing over the hit.
In the second period, Hickey labeled Lightning forward Jonathan Drouin, sending him to the locker room.
