Erik Fleming

The WHL has suspended Swift Current Broncos defenseman Erik Fleming for one game after an incident during Saturday's 4-1 loss in Lethbridge.

Fleming received five and a game for slashing the Hurricanes' Jurai Bezuch late in that game.

Bezuch was also suspended for one game after getting a clipping major and a game misconduct for a low hit on Fleming.

Fleming will miss the Broncos' next game December 27th against Prince Albert.
