Ottawa Senators forward Hayden Hodgson has been suspended for two games by the NHL Department of Player Safety for charging Los Angeles Kings defenseman Brandt Clarke.
The incident occurred during a recent game between the Senators and Kings. Hodgson received a major penalty and game misconduct for the hit on Clarke.
The suspension will cost Hodgson salary based on his average annual value, and he will be eligible to return to the lineup after serving the two-game ban.
