NEW YORK, N.Y. - Islanders forward Anders Lee has been fined $2,286 by the NHL for elbowing St. Louis Blues defenceman Carl Gunnarsson last weekend.

The play came at 7:15 of the second period during Saturday's 6-4 victory by the visiting Blues. Lee didn't draw a penalty.

The league said Tuesday the fine was the maximum allowable under the collective bargaining agreement. The money goes to the players' emergency assistance fund.
