Nov 8 D James Wisniewski returned to the lineup after completing a two-game, NHL-imposed suspension for an elbow to the head of Coyotes RW Shane Doan during the first period of an Oct. 31 game at Phoenix. Wisniewski, who sat out Tuesday's and Thursday's games against Pittsburgh and Nashville, respectively, picked up an assist, his 10th in 10 games this season and his fifth in his last three games.

Nov 8 Wisniewski was suspended for two games because he hit Phoenix's Shane Doan in the forehead with his arm.

Advice: The NHL announced the suspension Monday, two days after Wisniewski delivered the blow to Doan's head in the first period of the Coyotes' 3-2 shootout win Saturday night. Wisniewski, who didn't receive a penalty on the play, will also lose more than $28,000 in pay for sitting out Tuesday night against Pittsburgh and Thursday night against Nashville.

Nov 2 Wisniewski was suspended two games by the NHL on Monday, according to the Ducks web site.

Recommendation: Wisniewski was suspended for a hit on the Coyotes Shane Doan where his forearm ended up hitting him in the head. Although there was no penalty given on the play the NHL does not like hits to the head. Wisniewski will be eligible to rejoin the Ducks on Saturday.
