Jamie McGinn was handed a charging minor for a questionable hit on Nashville Predators defenseman Seth Jones in the first period of Wednesday’s game.
McGinn, the Colorado Avalanche forward, caught Jones with a hit into the end boards behind the Nashville net. Jones went to reverse the puck, but just as he turned to face the boards, McGinn made contact, driving Jones hard into the boards from behind.
Jones was slow to get up, but returned to the game, playing one more shift in the opening period, before taking a regular turn in the second.
