Lightning's Sergachev suspended after hit on Maple Leafs' Marner

Tampa Bay's Mikhail Sergachev has been suspended for two games for an Illegal Check to the Head on Toronto's Mitchell Marner.

Tavares commented on the hit:

"I didn't like it at all," captain John Tavares said. "I thought Mitchy was pretty exposed, no chance to really protect himself or see it coming. Didn't like it at all. Hit him right in the head. We want that stuff out of our game. (Suspension) should be at least talked about."
