This Bruins defenseman has been fined by NHL Player Safety.
Boston's Cam Neely Could Be Next On The Hot Seat
NHL Player Safety has announced that Boston Bruins defenseman Nikita Zadorov has been fined $5,000, which is the maximum alllowable under the CBA, for unsportsmanlike conduct.
Zadorov has received this fine for poking Pittsburgh Penguins star Evgeni Malkin with his stick while on the bench. Malkin responded by swinging his stick toward the Bruins' bench and hitting Bruins defenseman Mason Lohrei. Because of this, the future Hall of Famer has also been fined $5,000.
Zadorov, 29, has one goal, seven points, 50 penalty minutes, and 69 hits this season with the Bruins.
