The ECHL Department of Player Safety on Sunday announced that South Carolina’s Garet Hunt has been suspended for one game and fined an undisclosed amount as a result of his actions in ECHL Game #958, Jacksonville at South Carolina, on April 6.
Hunt is fined and suspended under Rule #28 Supplementary Discipline as the result of an unpenalized kneeing infraction at 4:09 of the second period.
Hunt will miss South Carolina’s game at Florida on April 12.
Under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement between the ECHL and the Professional Hockey Players’ Association, player fines collected by the ECHL are given to the PHPA for its ECHL Player’s Hardship Fund.
