NEW YORK - Arizona Coyotes defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson has been fined $2,000 as supplementary discipline under NHL Rule 64 (Diving/Embellishment), the National Hockey League announced today.
NHL Rule 64 is designed to bring attention to and more seriously penalize players (and teams) who repeatedly dive and embellish in an attempt to draw penalties. Fines are assessed to players and head coaches on a graduated scale outlined below:
Citation # | Player Fine(s) | * Head Coach Fine(s)
1 | Warning | N/A
2 | $2,000 | N/A
3 | $3,000 | N/A
4 | $4,000 | N/A
5 | $5,000 | $2,000
6 | $5,000 | $3,000
7 | $5,000 | $4,000
8 | $5,000 | $5,000
* For head coaches, each FINE issued to a player on his club counts toward his total. Four FINES issued to one player or a club collectively results in the head coach receiving his first fine.
