Winnipeg Jets defenseman Josh Morrissey has been suspended one game for cross-checking Minnesota Wild center Eric Staal.
The play occurred late in the first period of Game 4 between the teams. With Minnesota on the powerplay, Morrissey hit Staal with a high cross-check that was not whistled for a penalty.
The referee later apologized to Staal, but the missed call still left Wild head coach Bruce Boudreau feeling irate, especially considering a penalty would have given the Wild a lengthy two-man advantage and an opportunity to open the scoring.
The Wild trail the Jets 3-1 in the opening-round series.
