The NHL's Department of Player Safety announced on Friday that Arizona Coyotes forward Clayton Keller has been fined $5,000 - the maximum allowable under the CBA - for cross-checking Ottawa Senators defenseman Erik Brannstrom.

Keller was ejected from Thursday night's game, and a response from the Department of Player Safety was expected.

Some could call the sentence a bit light in response, but Brannstrom wasn't hurt, Keller was ejected, and the Coyotes lost the game (shocker, I know). So perhaps DoPS figured Keller saw punishment enough that a fine was sufficient.
