Jets' Perfetti Claims Wild's Hartman Admitted to Intentional High-Stick

Hartman fined maximum amount under NHL's Collective Bargaining Agreement, despite audio evidence not being admissible for disciplinary action.

Winnipeg Jets forward Cole Perfetti alleges that Minnesota Wild forward Ryan Hartman intentionally high-sticked him during a game on New Year's Eve, claiming that Hartman admitted to the act as retribution for an injury to Wild forward Kirill Kaprizov caused by Jets defender Brenden Dillon.
Perfetti was mic'd up during the game, and he claims that Hartman's admission was caught on audio, although the NHL and NHLPA have an agreement that audio captured by mics can't be used for disciplinary action.
The NHL fined Hartman $4,437.08, the maximum fine allowed under the NHL's Collective Bargaining Agreement, for the high-sticking incident, but did not penalize him during the game.
The Jets and Wild have a history of tension, with previous incidents including a collision last season that resulted in a month-long injury for Kaprizov.
The Jets and Wild are scheduled to play against each other again in Winnipeg on February 20.
