Canucks enforcer Rick Rypien was suspended six games Friday for grabbing a fan during Vancouver's loss to Minnesota this week. Rypien was headed to the locker room Tuesday night after being assessed a double minor for roughing and 10-minute misconduct when he reached up and grabbed James Engquist, a fan applauding at the railing. The Canucks were also fined $25,000, as required by NHL policy. "Prior to each season, all clubs and players are advised that under no circumstances are club personnel permitted to have physical contact with fans or enter or attempt to enter the stands," commissioner Gary Bettman said. "We hold NHL players to a high standard, and there simply is no excuse for conduct of this nature."
