Dallas Stars forward Jamie Benn will have a disciplinary hearing with the league on Saturday regarding the cross check he put on Edmonton's Ryan Jones on Thursday, TSN reported.
According to CBC, it will be a fine hearing, which means Benn could be fined $5,000 of more.
The incident occurred in the third period, with the Oilers leading 5-1. Benn was given a major for cross checking and a game misconduct.
Earlier, Jones had bumped Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen while skating to the net.
Benn has six goals and eight assists in 16 games this season.
