Scott has been suspended two games for his role in Sunday's fight between the Sharks and Ducks, Sporting News reports.

Analysis:

Scott started a fight with Anaheim's Tim Jackman during a game in which the teams combined for 165 penalty minutes. Though he left the bench during the incident, the NHL ruled it a legal line change, so Scott avoids the mandatory 10-game suspension for leaving the bench to instigate a fight. He'll miss Tuesday's game in Colorado and Thursday's contest in Minnesota.
