WINNIPEG — The NHL has no plans to discipline Winnipeg Jets defenceman Zach Bogosian beyond his game misconduct on Sunday night.
The league has no review underway on the incident that saw Bogosian travel a distance and make a heavy check on Andreas Nodl of the Carolina Hurricanes during Sunday’s second period at the MTS Centre.
Bogosian was given a major for charging and a game misconduct. Video replays show that Bogosian did not use his elbows nor did he target Nodl’s head.
The matter of whether Bogosian left his feet (illegal) to deliver the check is open for debate. Often, and it may be in this case, the contact causes a skater’s feet to come off the ice after the contact. Nodl did not return to the game.
Bogosian received a warning for a high hit earlier this season but the NHL determined the actions of the player he was hitting, Cody Eakin of Washington, was partly responsible for the high contact.
The Jets traveled to Pittsburgh today and play the Penguins on Tuesday night (6 p.m. CT, TSN Jets, TSN 1290).
With them was right-winger Eric Fehr, though there was no word as to his availability for games this week. Spencer Machacek was recalled Sunday to take his place.
Nik Antropov, who scored in three straight games and then left Sunday’s contest with a lower-body injury, did not make the trip today. There was no update on his condition but given that he didn’t travel today, the chances are strong he will not be available for any games this week.
