Andy Sutton has been suspended for eight games for hitting Carolina's Alexei Ponikarovsky in the head on Wednesday. Because Sutton's a repeat offender, he will forfeit salary based on the number of games he'll miss rather than days. With that in mind, Sutton delivered Ponikarovsky a $207,317.04 hit. Sutton previously served a five-game suspension for hitting Colorado's Gabriel Landeskog in the head on November 1st. Sutton has already served one game of his suspension and he will be eligible to return on December 31st.
