Canadian forward Joe Veleno appeared to stomp on Switzerland forward Nino Niederreiter's foot during Canada's 3-2 loss on Saturday.

The incident occurred at the midway point of the second period during a battle behind the Canadian net where Veleno appears to forcefully step on Niederreiter's foot in order to free the puck.

Niederreiter went after Veleno in the ensuing scuffle where he was assessed a two-minute minor for roughing. Veleno was not penalized on the play.
