NEW YORK (AP) – Calgary Flames forward Krzysztof Oliwa was suspended for two games Friday, a day after crosschecking Montreal’s Darren Langdon in the face.

Oliwa will miss games Saturday night against Chicago and Thursday night against Colorado.

Oliwa, suspended for five games in November 2002, was considered a repeat offender by the NHL and will forfeit $21,341.46 in salary.

The money goes to the Players Emergency Assistance Fund.
