NHL suspends Stars’ Garbutt for two games, Jets’ Lowry for one game

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Dallas Stars forward Ryan Garbutt was suspended for two games by the NHL on Thursday while Winnipeg Jets forward Adam Lowry received a one-game ban for separate incidents this week.

Garbutt was disciplined for kneeing Edmonton Oilers forward Taylor Hall in the Stars’ 3-2 victory last Tuesday.

Garbutt was assessed a minor penalty for tripping on the play. He’s considered a repeat offender and will forfeit US$43,902.44 in salary.

Lowry, meanwhile, was suspended for boarding Sabres forward Patrick Kaleta in Wednesday’s 2-1 victory in Buffalo. Lowry, who will forfeit $4,453.41, was assessed a major penalty for boarding and a game misconduct on the play.
