RALEIGH, N.C. — Jets defenceman Zach Bogosian will not be suspended or fined by the NHL for an apparent hit to the head of Washington’s Cody Eakin on Wednesday night.

Bogosian had a 40-minute hearing with NHL VP of player safety Brendan Shanahan earlier today, before the Jets practised in Raleigh.

Bogosian will receive just a warning, an NHL staffer said tonight. No penalty was called on the play, which occurred in the second period of the game in Washington.

The Jets face the Carolina Hurricanes here on Friday night.
