St. Louis Blues forward Ryan Reaves has been fined for roughing Los Angeles Kings forward Anze Kopitar during Tuesday night's game.
The NHL Department of Player Safety announced Wednesday that Reaves was fined $3,024.19, the maximum allowable under the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
Kopitar took a hard elbow to the face from Reaves at 11:56 of the first period and had trouble getting to the bench. Kopitar came back on the ice later in the period but was not on the Kings' bench for the start of the second period. Kopitar suffered an upper-body injury, the Kings said.
