Hollweg, who took a few stitches in the chin but was not seriously hurt, and two attorneys for the Rangers met with representatives from Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen Rice's office Thursday.
"They asked me if I wanted to, but I told them I didn't want to press charges," Hollweg told the Long Island, N.Y., newspaper Friday. "I'm not happy about what he did, but I want to focus on making the playoffs. I just want to move on."
