Sharks' Haley suspended one game for punch on Jarnkrok

SAN JOSE Sharks forward Micheal Haley has been suspended one game for punching Nashvilles Calle Jarnkrok on Saturday in San Joses 7-2 loss, and will miss Tuesday's home game with the Rangers. After absorbing a borderline hit from behind into the glass by Jarnkrok, Haley tracked down the Predators forward and promptly delivered a left jab to Jarnkroks face at 12:56 of the final frame. According to the video released by the league, Haley was seeking retribution for the hit by Jarnkrok, who was already being penalized for boarding, and delivered a forceful punch on an opponent who was not able to defend himself at the time.
