Overview

• Connor Zary, forward for the Calgary Flames, has been suspended for two games following a high hit on Vancouver Canucks defenseman Elias Pettersson.
• The incident occurred during the first period of the Canucks' 4-3 shootout win over the Flames on Wednesday night.
• Zary delivered an elbow to Pettersson's head in response to an earlier open-ice hit by Pettersson on Flames' Nazem Kadri.
• Pettersson briefly returned for one more shift but did not play in the second period, with no injury details provided by the Canucks post-game.
• The suspension will cost Zary $8,993 in forfeited salary, and he was initially assessed a two-minute interference penalty during the game.
