Dalton Thrower has been suspended for the rest of the Memorial Cup tournament after delivering a check to the head on Portland Winterhawks forward Taylor Leier.
Leier, who was a fourth-round pick of the Philadelphia Flyers in 2012, lay motionless on the ice before being helped off and there was no penalty called on the play. He is suffering from concussion-like symptoms. Thrower was chosen in the second round of 2012 draft by the Montreal Canadiens.

Sebastian Collberg signed a three-year contract with the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday.
In 35 games with Frolunda of the Swedish Elite League this past season, he notched six goals and nine points. He also appeared in 15 games with Orebro HK in Sweden's second division (HockeyAllsvenskan), where he had eight points. Collberg concluded the year with two games in Hamilton of the AHL. He was taken with the 33rd overall pick in the 2012 draft by Montreal.

Alexei Emelin will be sidelined for the next six months after undergoing surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left knee Tuesday.
Emelin suffered the season-ending injury on April 6 but waited until just today to have it repaired. Given the timeline, it's likely Emelin won't be able to return to the lineup until at least the end of November and possibly early December. While the injury won't affect your fantasy draft, the Canadiens clearly missed his physical presence on the blue line.
