Brad Marchand won't be suspended for his latest transgression.
The Boston Bruins' talented pest was fined $5,000 on Monday for cross-checking Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Andrew MacDonald on Sunday.
After MacDonald hit Marchand into the boards late in the second period of the Flyers' 4-3 overtime win, the Philadelphia blue-liner fell to the ice before Marchand struck him in the face with his stick.
Marchand was assessed a minor penalty for cross-checking following the incident.
This is the third time Marchand has been handed supplemental discipline this season. He was fined for diving less than four weeks ago, and was suspended five games for elbowing New Jersey Devils forward Marcus Johansson in the head in January.
