Tanner Glass fined for hit on McQuaid

BOSTON -- New York Rangers forward Tanner Glass has been fined $3,897.85 for butt-ending Bruins defenseman Adam McQuaid, the NHL announced.

After the final buzzer of Boston's 4-2 win Saturday at TD Garden, Glass was assessed a major penalty and a game misconduct for hitting McQuaid in the face with the end of the stick. McQuaid was sporting a huge gash above his left eye after the game.

"He took a bit of a butt end in the face, so I haven't checked him out, but again those are things that if need be the league will look into," Bruins coach Claude Julien said before the fine was announced.

Per the CBA, the fine goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund.
