Match officials had to be quickly escorted off the field to ensure their safety.

Video from the game shows that referee Morrison didn't call a penalty right away after two players bumped into each other in the Sharks' penalty area. However, after medical staff checked on the players, the referee decided to award a penalty to the visiting team.
