Sabres forward Patrick Kaleta has been fined by the NHL for his attempted headbutt on New Jersey Devils' Travis Zajac on Wednesday in Buffalo.

Late in the first period, Kaleta and Zajac clashed in front of the New Jersey bench. Kaleta leaned in towards Zajac and tried to make contact using his head. He missed and was pushed over by Zajac, who was then assessed a minor penalty for roughing.

Deserved. Stupid decision by Kaleta. He is already on a short leash, given what kind of role he plays, and he certainly didn't do himself any favors with that stunt.

I agree, it almost looks like he is turning into Sean Avery (I cringe at that thought)

That sucks for him, I'm surprised the league did something with all of the other crap they turn a blind eye too.

I think this is newsworthy enough to have its own thread for discussion.

I think this is bullshit, Hjalmerpussy wasn't fined, Kaleta slightly and ever so lightly tapping Zajac on the shoulder with his head isn't this big.

In a way he was. Players are not paid for games they are suspended. I'm pretty sure that the money goes into the same fund that player fines go into.

Meh, simple fine is nothing.

Kaleta will get plenty of fines for his play simply because he's an agitator and that's what they do.

He could've avoided getting fined for a headbutt if he DIDN'T TRY TO HEADBUTT ANOTHER PLAYER. Kaleta is supposed to toe the line, not cross it egregiously.

I think he just meant he had the aggression coming to him.

The issue is closed. He got fined for it. Hopefully it never happens again.
