NHL Department of Safety Hands Out First Suspension Of The Season
The NHL Department of Player Safety has made its presence felt early in the 2023/24 season, handing out its first suspension. The league's official announcement came through its Twitter account.
In a recent game between the Los Angeles team and Anaheim, Arthur Kaliyev found himself in hot water after kneeing Anaheim's Chase De Leo during the second period.
Kaliyev was penalized with a 2-minute penalty for kneeing during the game, but the Department of Player Safety has now laid down a more substantial punishment.
Kaliyev's suspension spans across both the preseason and regular season, totaling four games in all. This marks the opening disciplinary action of the season by the NHL Department of Player Safety.
