Suspension
The NHL suspended Tom Sestito for four games for his hit on Tobias Enstrom.
Sestito played just 1:02 TOI during Wednesday’s game in Winnipeg, but that was enough time for him to get in a fight with Chris Thorburn and get ejected for blasting Enstrom into the boards from behind. Sestito is not a regular member of the Penguins lineup (for good reason) so this suspension does not affect them at all.
