New York Rangers defenseman Jacob Trouba will not receive any supplemental discipline for his hit on Montreal Canadiens defenseman Justin Barron, sources told ESPN.

In the third period Tuesday with the Rangers leading 5-2, Barron carried the puck along the boards into New York's zone. As Barron passed to a teammate, Trouba walloped him with a hard check that dropped the Montreal player.

Canadiens defenseman Mike Matheson skated over for a brief tussle with Trouba, earning an instigator penalty on top of the five minutes for fighting both players received.
