Jamie Benn's Cross-Check on Mark Stone
Penalty-Filled Affair in Dallas
Stars and Golden Knights Clash in Physical Contest
The Dallas Stars and Vegas Golden Knights engaged in a heated battle on Tuesday night, with penalties flying throughout the game. One of the most notable incidents occurred late in the second period when Stars captain Jamie Benn was called for a cross-check against Vegas captain Mark Stone.
The play began with Benn chasing down Stone in the corner. As Stone attempted to make a move, Benn delivered a hard cross-check to his back. Stone went down to the ice, and a scrum ensued between the two teams. Benn was assessed a five-minute penalty for the cross-check and was ejected from the game.
The penalty gave the Golden Knights a five-minute power play, which they capitalized on to take a 2-1 lead. The Stars were able to tie the game in the third period, but Vegas eventually won 3-2 in overtime.
Benn's cross-check was a major turning point in the game. It gave the Golden Knights a significant advantage on the power play, and they were able to take advantage. The Stars were also left without their captain for the rest of the game, which made it difficult for them to mount a comeback.
The penalty was also a costly one for Benn. He will now be suspended for one game, which means he will miss the Stars' next game against the Anaheim Ducks.
