The incident occurred in Saturday's 2-0 loss when Watson drilled the Bruins' blueliner up high after he had cleared the puck out from the corner. Watson was handed a two-minute penalty for interference. 

Watson played 11:48 with one shot on goal and five hits in the loss, while Ahcan registered one blocked shot in 15:15.

The 30-year-old Watson has two goals and one assist in 31 games so far this season, his second in Ottawa.
