Jordin Tootoo's wallet is $2,000 lighter.

The New Jersey Devils forward has been fined and given supplementary discipline under Rule 64 (diving/embellishment), the NHL announced Thursday.

Tootoo was issued a warning following an incident flagged by the league during a Devils game back on Oct. 18. The second incident, which triggered the $2,000 fine, was issued in a loss to Detroit on Jan. 4.
