On Monday, the NHL fined Florida Panthers forward Eetu Luostarinen $5,000 for high-sticking Pittsburgh Penguins forward Rickard Rakell during a game at PPG Paints Arena on Sunday, which the Penguins won 5-2.

The incident occurred at 2:33 of the second period and Luostarinen was assessed a double minor penalty for high-sticking as Rakell was bloodied.

As Rakell skated behind Florida’s net and emerged to the left of the cage, Luostarinen struck the left side of Rakell’s head with his stick.

Rakell completed the game without any apparent serious injury and even scored two goals.

This marks the first time Luostarinen has been subject to supplemental discipline — either a fine or suspension — in his seven-year NHL career.

The fine total is the maximum allowable under the collective bargaining agreement between the NHL and NHLPA. All money goes to the Players’ Emergency Assistance Fund, an endeavor that aids former players facing financial hardship.
