Winnipeg Jets forward Adam Lowry will have a hearing Saturday for high-sticking/slashing Nashville Predators forward Filip Forsberg on Friday night, the Department of Player Safety announced.

Here's a look at the incident in question:

Lowry received a two-minute minor for high-sticking on the play.

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Evgeni Malkin was suspended one game earlier this month for a similar incident, though he never made contact with the opponent's head.

Philadephia Flyers defenseman Radko Gudas received a two-game suspension for a high stick on Nikita Kucherov earlier this season.
