John Hayden, a forward for the Coachella Valley Firebirds, has recently incurred a one-game suspension from the American Hockey League’s Player Safety Committee. This disciplinary measure is a direct result of Hayden’s conduct during a game against Ontario on November 21, which led to an instigator penalty being issued to him within the final five minutes of the third period. According to AHL Rule 46.21, this infraction mandates an automatic one-game suspension. Consequently, Hayden will be unavailable for the upcoming match against Bakersfield on Saturday, November 25.
