NHL

The NHL fined New Jersey Devils forward Tomas Tatar $5,000 on Monday for high-sticking Carolina’s Sebastian Aho during Sunday’s Game 3.

The penalty occurred at 12:20 of the first period in the Devils’ 8-4 win over the Hurricanes. Tatar was issued a two-minute minor.

The fine is maximum allowable under the collective bargaining agreement.

Aho himself was called for two penalties on one play later in the game. He was whistled for cross-checking and roughing on Jack Hughes at 11:30 of the second period. Hughes was also hit with a roughing minor on the play.

The Canes lead the Eastern Conference second-round series 2-1. Game 4 is Tuesday night in New Jersey.
