Steve Miller had a tough night at the office.
The NHL linesman endured two separate scares in the second period Wednesday night, first getting run into at the blue line by Pittsburgh Penguins forward Jake Guentzel, and then getting his hand cut later in the frame.
Miller appeared to get cut by the skate of Charles Hudon as the Montreal Canadiens forward was jumping over the boards and coming off the ice, according to TSN's John Bartlett.
The official returned to the game in the third period with his right hand taped up, per The Athletic's Seth Rorabaugh.
Miller was a late add to Wednesday's game. One of the two originally scheduled linesmen, Jonny Murray, couldn't make it in time because of the heavy snow that has been falling in the Pittsburgh area.
