Red Wings' Berggren fined for cross-checking
Written by I Dig SportsDetroit Red Wings forward Jonatan Berggren has been fined $2,148.44 by the NHL for cross-checking Toronto Maple Leafs forward Connor Dewar during Saturday's game.
The fine, announced Sunday, is the maximum allowable under the league's collective bargaining agreement.
The incident occurred midway through the second period of Detroit's 4-2 victory after Dewar leaned into Berggren with a slight shoulder check. Berggren responded by striking Dewar in the head and was assessed a minor penalty for cross-checking.
Berggren, 24, has six points (four goals, two assists) in 30 games this season.
The Swede has totaled 40 points (21 goals, 19 assists) in 109 career games since being selected by Detroit in the second round of the 2018 NHL draft.
