The NHL has started an early crackdown on cross checks to the face.
New York Islanders' forward Jonathan Drouin has been suspended for one game following a cross check to the face of Pittsburgh Penguins' forward Connor Dewar on Thursday.
The infraction happened at the Penguins' net-front late in the third period, and the Penguins ultimately ended up the 4-3 winners.
