Philadelphia Flyers forward Brayden Schenn has been suspended three games by the NHL’s Department of Player Safety for a charging infraction on Washington Capitals forward T.J. Oshie. He will serve the suspension during the first three games of the 2016/17 season.
The incident took place in the second period of the Capitals Game 6 elimination of the Flyers when Schenn made contact with Oshie’s head while delivering a hit. He also appears to leave his feet while delivering the hit.
Oshie immediately left the game and remained out of action for the remainder of the period before returning in the final frame.
Capitals captured the sixth game of the series 1-0 to advance to the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs.
