On Friday, the NHL’s Department of Player Safety announced it has suspended New York Islanders forward Max Tsyplakov for three games for his illegal check to the head of Flyers forward Ryan Poehling on Thursday night. The third game of his suspension is a rematch between the Flyers and Islanders at UBS Arena.

Islanders rookie Maxim Tsyplakov had a target on his back after delivering a hard shoulder check on Poehling, who left the game.

The Philadelphia Flyers announced Monday that center Ryan Poehling has been added to the injured reserve with an upper-body injury. In a corresponding roster move, center Rodrigo Abols has been recalled from the AHL’s Lehigh Valley Phantoms.
