Carson Soucy Earns a Fine for Punching Pierre-Luc Dubois in the Back of the Head
The NHL's Department of Player Safety announced that Seattle Kraken defenseman Carson Soucy has been fined $2,500 for roughing Pierre-Luc Dubois in last night's game against the Winnipeg Jets.
This is the second time in the past week a player has been fined for a play in which Pierre-Luc Dubois was the 'victim;' Blake Coleman was fined for slew-footing the Jets' pivot yesterday.
Soucy's actions not only resulted in a fine for himself, but they also cost the Kraken the win. Soucy's roughing penalty came with just 26 seconds left on the clock as the Kraken defended a 2-1 lead.
Thus, enabling Blake Wheeler to tap in the tying goal in the dying seconds before Mark Scheifele buried the OT winner less than a minute into the OT period.
