NEW YORK, N.Y. – Toronto Maple Leafs forward Richard Panik has been fined US$2,000 for diving or embellishment.
The incident occurred in the second period of Toronto’s 4-0 loss at Washington on Sunday. Capitals defenceman Mike Green received a minor penalty for holding on the play.
It was Panik’s second offence this season. He received a warning in Toronto’s game against Montreal on Feb. 14.
