GLENDALE, AZ (February 17, 2014) - The Central Hockey League (CHL) announced today that Allen Americans forward Garrett Klotz has been suspended for two (2) games and as a result will miss this afternoon's contest in Denver and Friday's game in Wichita.
Klotz received a game misconduct and subsequent suspension for returning to the ice after being ordered off by a linesman (rule 70.6) and he also received a misconduct for "Ëcontinuing to fight' (rule 46.5). The infractions came in the final minutes of Missouri's 5-2 win over Allen on Saturday night.
