The Calgary Flames will be without Milan Lucic for two games after he was suspended today by the NHL Disciplinary Committee.

Lucic punched rookie forward Kole Sherwood after he took a poke at David Rittich, who had just made a save.
The Flames tough guy received a double minor for his efforts and today the NHL saw fit to suspend the forward for two games.
Lucic will not be in the lineup tonight in Washington so the Flames will most likely play with 11 forwards for tonight's contest.
