Bruins 2021 first-rounder ejected for checking to the head in Bronze Medal Game (video)
During the first period of Thursday's Bronze Medal Game between Sweden and the United States, Boston Bruins 2021 first-round pick Fabian Lysell was given a five-minute major and game misconduct for checking to the head.
Lysell went to make a hit on Kenny Connors, but catches the LA Kings prospect up high with his shoulder. The call on the ice was a five-minute major for checking to the head and upon a review by the officials, the call was upheld and Lysell was ejected from the game.
It was a disappointing tournament for Lysell, who had no points in Sweden's seven games.
