Dallas Stars forward Mason Marchment won't face discipline for slashing referee Graham Skilliter during Sunday's Game 3 win over the Winnipeg Jets, reports Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.
The league discussed the play, but it's up to the on-ice official to decide if an incident qualifies for abuse of a referee, and Skilliter apparently decided no, per Friedman.
Here's the play:
Mason Marchment just tapped an official (Graham Skilliter) on the shin pad because he was upset with a non-call.

You definitely can’t do that and I imagine some sort of discipline is coming. pic.twitter.com/fVchFshpJg
Marchment was not penalized for the play.
The Stars hold a 2-1 series lead.
