Toronto's Hollweg Suspended For Two Games

Monday, October 6, 2008

(Sports Network) - Toronto Maple Leafs left wing Ryan Hollweg received an automatic two-game suspension on Monday after receiving his third boarding or checking from behind major in a 41-game span.

The third penalty came in last Wednesday's preseason loss at St. Louis, when Hollweg was assessed a boarding major and game misconduct.

Last season with the Rangers, Hollweg received checking from behind majors and game misconducts on January 5 against Edmonton and February 3 against Montreal.

Hollweg will sit out Toronto's season-opener Thursday at Detroit and the home- opener against Montreal on Saturday. He also forfeits $5,510.76 in salary, which goes to the players' emergency assistance fund.
