Penguins' Bortuzzo receives 2-game ban for violent hit on Jagr

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Robert Bortuzzo has been suspended two games for his "predatory" hit on New Jersey Devils forward Jaromir Jagr, the NHL's Department of Player Safety announced Wednesday. 

Here's the NHL's explanation for Bortuzzo's ban: 

This is the first time the Penguins' blue-liner has received supplemental discipline in his NHL career. 

He will forfeit more than $6,000 in salary as a result of the suspension. 

Meanwhile, Jagr, who sat out practice Wednesday, is not expected to miss any more time, as per the NHL's video explanation.
