The NHL suspended Toronto Maple Leafs forward Nazem Kadri four games Monday for cross-checking Detroit Red Wings forward Luke Glendening up high in Sunday’s game at Air Canada Centre.
Kadri’s season is over because Toronto has just four regular-season games remaining. He has lost quite a bit of money this season for suspensions and fines.
Nazem Kadri has now forfeited $396,078.77 in salary for three NHL suspensions, two diving fines and one throat-slash fine.

Here’s the play in question. Kadri and Glendening got tangled up to the side of the net, and it appeared the Leafs forward took out his frustration with a cross-check.

This is Kadri’s third suspension as an NHL player. He finishes the season with 45 points (17 goals, 28 assists) in 76 games.
