Detroit's Robby Fabbri has been fined the maximum amount allowable under the NHL's collective bargaining agreement for spearing Toronto's Alexander Kerfoot Saturday night. Fabbri will forfeit d $2,419.35 as a result.
Fabbri committed the infraction during the second period of Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Maple Leafs. He and Kerfoot received offsetting minor penalties at the time.
The game started to get a bit out of control late in the third when five players were penalized in the final two minutes. First, Anthony Mantha and Jake Muzzin got tangled up, then Andreas Athanasiou took a run at Kerfoot that prompted Justin Holl to get involved.
Since being traded from the St. Louis Blues in early November, Fabbri has recorded eight goals and 16 points in 20 games.
