The ECHL Department of Player Safety announced that both Jacob Hudson from Maine and Ben Hawerchuk from South Carolina have each received a five-game suspension and an undisclosed fine due to their involvement in the game between South Carolina and Maine on Saturday, November 16th. These penalties are in accordance with Rule #70.4 and Rule #70.10, which address leaving the penalty box to participate in an altercation.

South Carolina will be without Hawerchuk for the upcoming games against Maine on November 17th, Greenville on November 22nd, Adirondack on November 23rd and 24th, as well as Jacksonville on November 27th.
