Vancouver Canucks forward Brandon Prust has been fined $5,000 for spearing Boston Bruins winger Brad Marchand during Saturday night’s game.
In the final minutes of the Bruins’ 4-0 win over the Canucks, in which Marchand contributed a goal on five shots, the Boston winger was speared in the groin by Prust.
Marchand stayed down on the ice before being attended to Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask and then trainers.
Prust received a 10-minute misconduct for the spear.
