The NHL's Department of Player Safety announced today it has issued Evgeny Kuznetsov a one-game suspension for his actions Monday night against the Vancouver Cancucks.
Kuznetsov two-hand slashed Canucks' defenseman Kyle Burroughs in a clear violation of the rules. You can't do that.
Kuznetsov will miss the team's game in Ottawa on Thursday night and is eligible to return Saturday evening, when the Capitals host the L.A. Kings.
