An AHL player has been issued a lengthy suspension after committing a dirty and dangerous act against a game official.
Bridgeport Islanders left winger Adam Beckman has been suspended 10 games for the abuse of an official stemming from an incident during Saturday's game against the Charlotte Checkers. During the third period of the April 5 game, Beckman could be seen pursuing a loose puck behind the net when he skated directly into a referee and shoved him into the boards.
