Sam Bennett was involved in a few incidents in Game 2, one with Matthew Knies and another with Michael Bunting. Mark Masters is joined by Chris Johnston and Pierre LeBrun to discuss this and more as Florida heads home with a 2-0 series lead.

I suspect Luke will punch his lights out 😅
Yall should stop crying. Bennett isnt dirty. Thats what you get when you get off first round and play against good players in 2nd round Laughs fan.
I didnt really realize it until this series but the panthers fanbase is a bunch of uneducated clowns lmao. Almost as bad as hab fans
Cry baby leaves fans are soft af
How is it not atleast a game
Panthers fan here but that behavior by Bennett was fucked up
He’s not a villain he’s just a douche bag
I love how the injury karma the leafs inflicted on the lightnings is coming back to them
heats up ??? we lost .. flat out lost .. we had home ice advantage and did not take advantage of it at all. pathetic show of defense and they're gonna be golfing in June
I'm sorry but this Bennet the villain dude needs to sit out games 3 and 4
Bennett needs to be put in his place…
Bennett doing his best Messier/Clarke impression.
I love how much they’re crying about Bennett already 😂
Sam Bennet just made himself a target. Don't be surprised if Simmons suits up in a later game.
I remember the day when something like this would be taken care of on the ice!
Stop crying leafs fans and media ur team is also dirty 😂
So many hilarious comments.
Ya gotta realize come playoff time ya better tighten your chin strap. The leafs would love him if he was on their team.
What happened to Bunting in the Tampa series he got suspended for his actions so Bennet should of gotten a game or two suspension for slamming Nies's head on the ice Go Leafs Go
TSN full embracing "Leafs Network," role
Leafs are toast😂
The league and the Refs are out to get Toronto……..Im sure thats the consensus from teams that have to play them at home…..🤣
is this what our beloved sport has come to? No more real tough guy villains? You concuss a rookie and cross check a pest twice and feel like a villain? Such a joke.
Its easy to love being a piece of shit when you know there is no consequences
This guy gets to "embrace" and "love" playing the villain, yet Bunting has to tip toe through the tulips like a boy scout?. & OMFG LET SIMMONS PLAY FFS!!!!!!
All these idiots here chirping leafs fans, Sam Bennett did things that second game that were outrageous and should not be allowed in hockey
If you do not think that then you are not a fan of the sport and we would be better off without you
TSN Toronto Sucks Nuts 😂
The Lafferty hit on Gudas, was not, the same. How can people look at these two plays and come to that conclusion. Lafferty basically hugs Gudas going in, wrapping his arm around. There is a hit with the boards he finished the hit, but it's not a head hit or head being driven into the boards from behind. Even the big throw to the ice. He falls on his back/side.
Sam Bennett for Conn Smythe!!!!
So he loves cross-checking opposing players in the neck & body slamming a 20yr old rookie & giving him a concussion aftr getting tangled up by the boards?💭 Nice to kno lol goofy
To all Leafs fans…..HIS HEAD NEVER HIT THE ICE! His head hit the glass when Bennett pushed him into it. You all need to open your eyes, and quit crying that Bennett viciously bounced his head off the ice. And, Knies is not a star. Right now he is a slightly above average player. He is not a game changer. Not having him in the lineup should be no excuse for the Leafs, if the Panthers knock them out.
Any comment from Leafs fans about when Bunting took out Tampa's 3rd best D man, when they were already without Hedman? You want to talk about changing the series, that was it. Knies being out shouldn't even click the radar as to why the Leafs are getting embarrassed here, he is the 7th or 8th best Leaf forward. I don't care that Bunting got 3 games. Him being out of the lineup made them better. Any comments on that, Leafs fans? *Crickets*? I thought so.
The Leafs should have acquired Bennett when he was on the way out from Calgary. Many fans, Leafs or neutral, had called for it.
He'd bring some of what they're lacking.
This series is going 7games no worries for a leaf fan
Is CJ 4’.. or the guys just tall
Leafs fan bias in full affect in the comments. Its like the ole saying goes Never play chess with a pigeon. The pigeon just knocks all the pieces over. Then shits all over the board. Then struts around like it won.
Damn Toronto pigeons 😂😂😂
Will he answer the bell though? If Schenn wants to drop the gloves will Bennett man up?
Sorry I don't find people are taking the injury Knies got from Bennet serious enough. Calling him a soft Rookie and stuff. That's an awful mindset. My dad died of a brain injury, brain bleed from hitting his head in a car accident this year. My kids daycare teacher fell asleep in her chair and fell out, hit her head died…I mean Bob Sagat…hit his head and died… HEAD INJURIES ARE NO JOKE AND DOESN'T MAKE YOU A SOFTIE….. People should be punished for ANY injury to the head that results in a concussion. My bf had a concussion last October and is still suffering from post concussive syndrome. We cant be allowing people to give career ending, life altering injuries. There is so much in body checking you CAN do that is clean and wont possible ruin a mans life….or even worse.. end it
