Philadelphia defenseman Brandon Manning has received a two-game suspension for a late hit on Penguins winger Jake Guentzel Saturday night.

A video released by the NHL's Department of Player Safety said Manning was suspended because he delivered a "high, forceful hit to Guentzel that makes substantial head contact."

Guentzel earned the primary assist on the Penguins' first two goals during their 4-2 victory against the Flyers at Heinz Field.
