Daniel Carcillo Suspended for Two Games
Tuesday, Mar. 30th, 2010
TORONTO – Philadelphia Flyers forward Daniel Carcillo has been suspended for two games, without pay, as a result of delivering a cross check to the head of New Jersey forward David Clarkson during NHL Game #1125, March 28, the National Hockey League announced today.
The incident took place at 15:14 of the third period and Carcillo was assessed a match penalty and game misconduct for attempt to injure.
Carcillo, who was suspended for four games on December 5, 2009, is considered a repeat offender under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Accordingly, he forfeits $21,798.78 in salary, based on the number of games in the season (82), rather than the number of days (193). The money goes to the Players’ Emergency Assistance Fund.
Carcillo will miss games on April 1 at New York Islanders and April 3 against Montreal. He will be eligible to return April 4 against Detroit.
