The penalty was the result of a boarding penalty on forward Matt Coronato.\n\nAlthough Coronato was able to finish the game, Calgary coach Ryan Huska called the play &#8220;a terrible hit.&#8221;\n\nThe NHL&#8217;s Player Safety Department decided not to hold a hearing for Rantanen following his latest infraction, based on Rule 23.6 of the NHL rulebook. This rule establishes an automatic one-game suspension for any player who receives a total of two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties in the &#8220;Physical Infractions&#8221; category within a period of 41 consecutive regular season games.\n\nThe suspension will keep Rantanen out of Tuesday night&#8217;s game in Edmonton against the Oilers, a rematch of last year&#8217;s Western Conference final, which the Oilers won in five games.\n\nRantanen, 29, is tied with Jason Robertson for the team lead with 28 points in 22 games (10 goals, 18 assists). With his two ejections, he now leads the team with an astounding 57 penalty minutes.\n\nThe hit on Saturday was the last of a difficult week for Rantanen.\n\nIn last Tuesday&#8217;s 3-2 loss to the Islanders, the Stars winger was also ejected at the end of the game after charging defenseman Alexander Romanov. That play drew the ire of Islanders coach Patrick Roy, who launched a profane tirade as Rantanen left the ice, and later called the hit &#8220;disrespectful.&#8221;\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>I&#8217;m going to say that when you see the number, you have to get out of the way. Everyone knows that. You don&#8217;t go against the guy. It&#8217;s not his style. But at the same time, that shouldn&#8217;t be part of our game.<\/p>\n\n<cite>Patrick Roy<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nRomanov will undergo shoulder surgery and is expected to be out for five to six months, the Islanders announced on Sunday.\n\nRantanen has no history of supplemental discipline in his 11-year career, which has spanned Colorado, Carolina, and now Dallas. Rantanen&#8217;s only notable history with the NHL&#8217;s Department of Player Safety before this suspension was a fine for embellishment.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mikko Rantanen Suspended After Controversial Play Dallas Stars forward Mikko Rantanen has been suspended for one game after being ejected for the second time in three games.
