NEW YORK (AP) — Edmonton Oilers forward Jujhar Khaira was suspended for two games without pay by the NHL on Wednesday for cross-checking St. Louis Blues defenseman Vince Dunn.

Khaira was assessed a major penalty for cross-checking and given a game misconduct Tuesday night in the third period of the Oilers' 4-1 home loss. The suspension will cost Khaira $7,258.

Earlier Wednesday, Dunn was fined $1,942 for cross-checking Khaira.
