Colorado Avalanche defenseman Ian Cole will not have a hearing for his knee-on-knee hit on Anaheim Ducks forward Devin Shore that occurred during Sunday's contest, a source told BSNDenver's Adrian Dater.
Cole received a 10-minute match penalty, which results in an automatic ejection, as well as a five-minute major for kneeing on the play.
Shore was helped off the ice by teammates and did not return to the game. The 24-year-old was scheduled to have an MRI on his knee Monday, according to Ducks assistant coach Mark Morrison.
Cole avoided supplementary discipline for a similar knee-on-knee collision with New York Islanders forward Brock Nelson earlier this season. He was assessed a two-minute minor on that play.
The 30-year-old blue-liner earned a three-game ban in 2012 for an illegal check to the head of Detroit Red Wings forward Justin Abdelkader, the only suspension of his career.
