MLB - 2 NHL - 332 HBD - 3

The New York Rangers-Vancouver Canucks brouhaha in the third period of Tuesday night's game has members of the Rangers facing discipline from the NHL.

As expected, forward Dane Byers has automatically been suspended for one game, and head coach John Tortorella is being fined $10,000.

Byers was originally assessed an instigator penalty in a fight with Vancouver's Tanner Glass in the final five minutes of the game (18:50 of the third period) and will miss Thursday's game against the Edmonton Oilers.

Byers will forfeit $2,590.67 due to the suspension, money that will go to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund. The NHL Foundation will receive the money from Tortorella's fine.

Also, sources say Vancouver's Shane O Brien will have a disciplinary hearing for using his stick to make contact with Ranger Sean Avery while both players were on their respective benches. O'Brien gave Avery a poke and Avery grabbed the stick out of O'Brien's hand.

What really bugs me about this is that the "Emergency Assistance Fund" is really the Phoenix Coyotes.
