Brendan Shinnimin has been cleared by the disciplinary committee after a brawl in a hockey derby, while Andreas Falk has been fined 15,000 kronor. The meeting started in the afternoon and lasted three hours. Shinnimin is now reportedly eligible to play in the CHL final against Frölunda on Tuesday.
Falk, who was previously forbidden from commenting on the brawl, has broken his silence, stating that he had no intention to hurt anyone or escalate the situation. Luleå Hockey's vice sports director Ulf Engman expressed confusion over why Shinnimin was reported in the first place.
