Penguins' Tom Sestito suspended four games for hit on Toby Enstrom

Pittsburgh Penguins left wing Tom Sestito was suspended four games by the NHL for his hit Wednesday night on Winnipeg defenseman Toby Enstrom.

The Penguins had called up Sestito for the game, with bad blood brewing between the teams after an incident earlier this season in which the Penguins' Evgeni Malkin caught Blake Wheeler with a hit to the head but drew only a minor penalty.

Wheeler sought retribution, starting a fight with Malkin early in the first period. Seconds later, Jets forward Chris Thorburn dropped the gloves with Sestito.
