The American Hockey League announced this afternoon that the Griffins' Eric Tangradi has been suspended for 3 games as a result of an illegal check to the head Sunday night against the Iowa Wild. He's been suspended under rule 28.1. Rule 28 is a pretty broad rule that basically says the president of the league can give out discipline after a game as he sees fit.
Rule 28 - Supplementary Discipline 28.1 Supplementary Discipline - In addition to the automatic fines and suspensions imposed under these rules, the President may, at his discretion, investigate any incident that occurs in connection with any Pre-season, Exhibition, League or Playoff game and may assess additional fines and/or suspensions for any offense committed during the course of a game or any aftermath thereof by a player, goalkeeper, Trainer, Manager, Coach or non-playing Club personnel or Club executive, whether or not such offense has been penalized by the Referee.
