Senators' Ridly Greig to have hearing with NHL
Apr 20, 2026; Raleigh, North Carolina, USA; Ottawa Senators center Ridly Greig (71) is tripped by Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Sean Walker (26) during the second period in game two of the first round of the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs at Lenovo Center. Mandatory Credit: James Guillory-Imagn Images Ottawa Senators forward Ridly Greig will have a hearing with the NHL's Department of Player Safety for roughing Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Sean Walker.
The date and time of the hearing has yet to be determined.
Per the Ottawa Citizen, the hearing will transpire over the phone, therefore Greig cannot be suspended for more than five games.
The incident occurred during a stoppage in play midway through the second period of Saturday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference first-round series.
Walker was involved in a scrum with Warren Foegele when Greig approached the pair and appeared to throw a punch that caught Walker up high and dropped him down to the ice.
The Hurricanes completed the series sweep with a 4-2 victory over the Senators.
