The NHL has suspended Anaheim Ducks winger Bobby Ryan for two games after Ryan stomped on the skate of Nashville Predators defenseman Jonathon Blum in Game 2 of the Western Conference playoffs.
The incident occurred in the final 3:30 of the Ducks 5-3 win. Ryan and Blum were battling behind the Predators goalpost when Ryan slammed his skate in Blum's ankle. Blum walked away from the play uninjured.
No penalty was called on the play and Ryan, 24, scored an empty-net goal two minutes later to seal the 5-3 win and Anaheim ties up the series at one game apiece.
Ryan will miss Game 3 and 4 of the series, both of which are at Nashville.
