The NHL's Player Safety Department was somewhat busy this morning, as they had two separate incidents to look over.
First, was a sucker punch by Lightning defenseman Mikhail Sergachev on Canucks forward Conor Garland.
Player Safety announced Sergachev's punishment this afternoon:
�'Tampa Bay's Mikhail Sergachev has been fined $5,000, the maximum allowable under the CBA, for Roughing Vancouver's Conor Garland.''
The second play happened between the Arizona Coyotes and Ottawa Senators when Clayton Keller caught Erik Brannstrom with a high cross check.
Keller was given the same discipline as Sergachev for completely different levels of dangerous plays.
''Arizona's Clayton Keller has been fined $5,000, the maximum allowable under the CBA, for Cross-checking Ottawa's Erik Brannstrom.''
