Video: Bruins Jeremy Lauzon suspended two games for hit to the head

The Bruins selected Jeremy Lauzon in the 2nd-round of the 2015 draft. Lauzon has been working his way up the team's depth chart, but his playing time is out of the team's control for the next two games as the NHL has suspended Lauzon for 2 games this hit on the Coyotes' Derek Stepan.




Here's the explanation from Player Safety:

Jeremy Lauzon misses the shoulder of Derek Stepan and clips the head, making it the main point of contact. Head contact is avoidable, officials rightly gave a match penalty on the play (minor or match, no option for major). Stepan returned to play, likely 1-2 games for Lauzon https://t.co/JCih0JrxGX
