John Scott is known as one of the biggest gongshows in the entire NHL and he proved why he has such a bad reputation on Monday night. For no reason whatsoever, Scott butt-ended Tim Jackman in the face as he came towards the net and knocked Jackman pretty hard. Jackman was visibly shaken up on the play and did not return.
There is no place for anything like this in the NHL and Scott deserves to be suspended.
John Scott will have a phone hearing with @NHLPlayerSafety tomorrow afternoon. He's a repeat offender.
