This goal-mouth scramble might have had some real bite to it.
Nashville defenseman P.K. Subban accused Las Vegas Knights forward Pierre-Edouard Bellemare of chomping on one of his fingers during a scuffle late in the second period of the Predators’ 2-1 victory Wednesday night.
Subban said he reached around Bellemare’s head to try to pull him away from Juuse Saros after the Nashville goalie covered the puck, but did not put his finger anywhere near Bellemare’s mouth.
“All I tried to do was grab him,” Subban said. “I grabbed him by the head to pull him up and he bit me, so that’s it.
