The ECHL Department of Player Safety on Sunday announced that Adirondack’s Tanner Edwards has been suspended for two games and fined an undisclosed amount as a result of his actions in ECHL Game #929, Reading at Adirondack, on March 21.

Edwards is fined and suspended under Rule #28 – Supplementary Discipline as the result of his major penalty and game misconduct for charging at 16:58 of the second period.
