Brendan Shanahan and the NHL have come down on yet another Maple Leaf; this time for a cheap, blindside hit to St. Louis Blues player, Vladimir Sobotka, by David Clarkson.
Leafs #Clarkson considered a repeat offender in term of what he’ll forfeit to #NHL but it didn’t come into play in the decision of 2 gms.

As a repeat offender, Clarkson will lose $109,576.10 in salary. Add to his $269,230.80 he lost for 10 game susp. and that's $378,806.90 lost
