Galchenyuk catches Miller in face with high stick

Another ugly high-sticking incident.

Montreal Canadiens forward Alex Galchenyuk spent four minutes in the box Sunday night after whacking Boston Bruins defenseman Kevan Miller in the face in the third period, but he may be in store for further discipline.

Miller left to be looked at by trainers and did return to the game, which the Bruins won 4-0.

Earlier Sunday, Gustav Nyquist landed a vicious high stick to the face of Minnesota Wild defender Jared Spurgeon, and the Detroit Red Wings forward will be suspended as a result.

The incident involving Galchenyuk appeared more accidental in nature, as the Canadiens forward lost his balance after Miller lightly cross-checked him toward the boards.
