TORONTO (Reuters) - Philadelphia Flyers forward Dan Carcillo has been suspended two games for a cross check to the head of New Jersey forward David Clarkson, the National Hockey League said on Tuesday.
The hit occurred late in the third period of Philadelphia's 5-1 home win on Sunday and Carcillo was given a match penalty and game misconduct for attempt to injure.
Carcillo, who was also suspended four games on December 5 and is considered a repeat offender, has 11 goals, nine assists and 196 penalty minutes in 72 games this season.
