The National Hockey League suspended Colorado Avalanche forward Cody McCormick for two games without pay on Friday for a high-sticking incident in Thursday's game against Minnesota.
McCormick was assessed a double minor penalty for high sticking Minnesota forward Cal Clutterbuck at 11:47 of the second period of a game in Denver, which Colorado eventually won 2-1 in a shootout.
McCormick will miss Saturday's game at Edmonton and Sunday's contest at Vancouver. He will be eligible to return March 17 when the Avalanche again face the Wild, in Minnesota.
