Nathan MacKinnon Ejected Following Goaltender Collision

Nathan MacKinnon received the first game misconduct of his career during Tuesday's game against Edmonton after a collision with Oilers goaltender Connor Ingram. MacKinnon was assessed a five-minute major for goaltender interference after being nudged by Darnell Nurse, forcing him into the crease. The ruling has sparked debate regarding officiating consistency, with experts like Tuukka Rask suggesting the play was an unavoidable 'perfect storm' rather than a malicious act.
