NEW YORK -- New York Islanders forward Mathew Barzal was fined $2,500 for unsportsmanlike conduct for making contact with a player on the ice while on the bench during Sunday night's loss at Toronto.
The NHL's department of player safety announced the supplemental discipline Monday.
While sitting on the bench with about four minutes left in the third period, Barzal tugged at the jersey of Maple Leafs forward Mitchell Marner and held on to him for a couple of seconds to obstruct him from following the play.
Marner on "Hockey Night in Canada" called it a first and said: "Hopefully he gets fined for that.
