NHL Department of Player Safety announces first hearing of the season
After taking a much deserved break, the NHL Department of Player Safety has finally returned to action. Today the DoPS announced that they'd finally scheduled the first hearing of this young season.
The league made the following announcement via their Twitter account today.
Los Angeles' Arthur Kaliyev will have a hearing today for Kneeing Anaheim's Chase De Leo. The incident occured in the second period of last night's game. On the play Kaliyev was issued a 2 minute penalty for kneeing, but he was not ejected.
It is likely this will be the first suspension of the season.
