It was in the SHL premiere yesterday, Saturday, between Rögle and Linköping that Adam Edström received a match penalty.
This when he came in as the third player in a battle for the puck where teammate Nils Höglander and Linköping's Finn Jarno Kärki were already.
Edström came in with violent force and hit Kärki with a tackle in the head.
Some of the disciplinary committee's main factors are that the tackle is distributed at high speed, that he comes in as the third player in the situation and that there is a great risk of injury to his opponent in his actions.
Edström will be suspended until October 8, which corresponds to five matches.
He must also pay a fine of SEK 6,756.
