Grand Rapids Griffins’ Luke Witkowski suspended for two games

The American Hockey League on Wednesday announced Grand Rapids Griffins defenseman Luke Witkowski will be suspended for two games following a cross-checking incident during the Griffins’ 4-1 win against the Milwaukee Admirals on Saturday.

Witkowski will miss Grand Rapids’ games Friday (Nov. 5) at Iowa and Saturday (Nov. 6) at Rockford.

You can see the play below at the very beginning of the clip on the left side.

Not a smart play from Witkowski, as it was a dangerous, unnecessary hit away from the play.

Witkowski has 0 points and 25 penalty minutes in 7 games with the Griffins this season.
