COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Columbus Blue Jackets forward Jared Boll has been suspended for three games without pay for a check to the head of Anaheim Ducks forward Patrick Maroon.
The league determined Boll came in high with his shoulder on a second-period hit on Maroon during the Tuesday night game in Columbus, a 5-3 Blue Jackets victory.
Under the terms of the collective bargaining agreement and, based on his average annual salary, Boll will forfeit $27,419.34. The money goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund.
