Los Angeles Kings forward Jordan Nolan was suspended one game by the NHL on Monday for punching Edmonton Oilers forward Jesse Joensuu.

The NHL said Nolan punched an unsuspecting opponent, Joensuu, during Sunday night's 4-2 win. The incident occurred at 19:56 of the second period. Nolan was assessed a double-minor penalty for roughing.

To add insult to injury, Joensuu was also issued a cross-checking penalty.

Under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement and, based on his average annual salary, Nolan will forfeit $3,589.74. The money goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund.

Nolan was fined last season when he cross-checked Vancouver Canucks centre Henrik Sedin, but was not suspended.

In 54 games this season, the 24-year-old has five goals and nine points to go along with 52 penalty minutes.

WINGS LOSE FIFTH CENTRE

The Detroit Red Wings will be without the services of Joakim Andersson, their fifth centre lost to injury this season.

Andersson broke his left foot blocking a shot against the New York Rangers during second period action Sunday in the Wings' 3-0 loss.

"It was still hurting in the third period, so this morning, we did an X-ray and a CT scan, and on the CT scan, it showed that it was broken," Andersson told the Detroit Free Press.

The Wings are already without centres Henrik Zetterberg, Pavel Datsyuk, Darren Helm and Stephen Weiss.

The team called up Cory Emmerton for Tuesday's road game against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

HABS WITHOUT GEORGES

Montreal Canadiens defenceman Josh Gorges will be out about a month following surgery Monday on his left hand, injured against the Toronto Maple Leafs two Saturdays ago.

Gorges played two games with the injury during the Canadiens’ West Coast trip before electing to have surgery.

In 63 games this season, Gorges has one goal and 12 assists while maintaining a plus-7 rating. He is second in the NHL with 173 blocked shots, behind league leader Andrew MacDonald (203) of the Philadelphia Flyers.

Habs general manager Marc Bergevin said he acquired defenceman Mike Weaver from the Florida Panthers as insurance in case Gorges would be out of the lineup down the stretch.

BLACKHAWKS, FOURNIER AGREE

The Chicago Blackhawks agreed to terms with defenceman Dillon Fournier on a three-year contract Monday.

Fournier, the team's second-round pick in the 2012 draft, has 13 goals and 19 assists in 36 games with the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. He had a career-high tying three points three times and has scored a career-best tying two goals twice.

The 19-year-old has 108 points (31 goals and 77 assists) in 207 career QMJHL games with Lewiston and Rouyn-Noranda from 2010-2013, and was named to the Canadian Hockey League Top Prospects Game following the 2011-12 campaign.

Fournier also had three points in six games for Team Quebec in the 2011 World Under-17 Hockey Challenge.
