Kassian was suspended without pay by the Canadiens Monday, TSN's Bob McKenzie reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kassian, whose maturity level has been questioned throughout his NHL career, will now enter Stage Two of the NHL-NHLPA joint Behavioral Modification program. Kassian will not be able to return to team activities until doctors have decided he is healthy and rehabilitated enough to do so. It's an unfortunate turn of events for the troubled 24-year-old winger, but on the bright side, Kassian should finally get the help he needs in the NHL-NHLPA's joint Behavioral Modification program.
