Headlines

Cooke becomes repeat offender: Pittsburgh Penguins left winger Matt Cooke was suspended for two games without pay by the NHL on Sunday for a deliberate check to the head area of New York Rangers center Artem Anisimov on Saturday night. Cooke, also suspended for two games in January, is considered a repeat offender under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Because of that, he forfeited $29,268 in salary based on the number of games (82) in a season, rather than the number of days (193). The money goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund.
(Updated 11/29/2009).

Injury Report

Suspension - Two-game suspension. Eligible to return Dec. 5 vs. Chicago
(Updated - 11/29/09)

Fantasy Analysis

Cooke was assessed a minor penalty for interference at 7:39 of the third period. Anisimov was injured on the play and did not return to the game. Cooke will miss Monday's rematch with the Rangers and Thursday against the Avalanche. He is eligible to return Saturday against the Blackhawks. Cooke is a low-end Fantasy forward and flier in leagues that reward heavily for PIM and short-handed stats when active. Keep him reserved for Week 9 (Nov. 30-Dec. 6).
