Toronto Maple Leafs prospect gets PULLED off the bench and PUNCHED in the face
It was interesting in an American Hockey League game the other night. Gemel Smith who was a former Dallas Stars 4th round pick, now playing for the Syracuse Crunch, got a little angry with Adam Gaudette of the Toronto Marlies.
Smith has only had 6 fights through his 9 year AHL career and whatever started this the other night, Smith was angry. Smith pulled Gaudette off the bench, dropped his gloves and landed a solid punch on Gaudette, who had yet to agree to the fight.
Gemel Smith gets four minutes for roughing. He gives Adam Gaudette a few punches before Gaudette drops the gloves himself.#Marlies get a power play out if it, though. pic.twitter.com/ypWun69Ubj� Nick Barden (@nickbarden) October 27, 2022
In the sequence, Smith received a double-minor and Gaudette got 2 minutes for roughing. How was Gaudette penalized at all for defending himself?
