Dallas Stars forward Antoine Roussel was suspended for two games Thursday for his cross-check to the throat of Boston Bruins defenceman Adam McQuaid.
Roussel received a five-minute major and a game misconduct on the play during Tuesday’s game.
Roussel was fined the maximum ($5,376.34) for a sucker-punch to the face of San Jose Sharks defenceman Justin Braun in November.
The 22-year-old forward has 11 goals and 22 points in 54 games this season.
