NHL fines Kings $100,000

The league’s reaction was swift and direct:

The Los Angeles Kings have been fined $100,000 for violating the terms of defenseman Slava Voynov’s suspension, the National Hockey League announced today.

Voynov skated with teammates today during a Club practice. Such activity is in direct contravention of the terms of the suspension levied Oct. 20, which permit Mr. Voynov to use club facilities and work with team personnel but prohibit his participation in any team-related functions or activities.
