Brendan Lemieux has a date with the NHL Department of Player Safety.

The gritty Winnipeg Jets forward will have to answer for an illegal check to the head he dished out to Florida's Vincent Trocheck in the second period of Friday's game in Helsinki. Lemieux was given a five-minute match penalty for the blindside hit.
