The following is a list of all suspensions and fines enforced in the National Hockey League (NHL) during the 2023–24 NHL season. It lists which players or coaches of what team have been punished for which offense and the amount of punishment they have received.
Players' money forfeited due to suspension or fine goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund, while money forfeited by coaches, staff or organizations as a whole goes to the NHL Foundation.
Suspensions
Based on each player's average annual salary, divided by number of days in the season (192) for non-repeat offenders and games (82) for repeat offenders, salary will be forfeited for the term of their suspension.
† - suspension covered at least one 2023 NHL preseason game
‡ - suspension covered at least one 2024 postseason game
# - suspension was reduced on appeal
- Player was considered a repeat offender under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (player had been suspended in the 18 months prior to this suspension)
Notes
1. All figures are in US dollars. 2. As players are not paid salary in the preseason or postseason, no fines are generated for games lost due to suspension during those periods. 3. Andersson and the NHLPA appealed the suspension on October 22, 2023. After a hearing conducted on October 23, Commissioner Gary Bettman upheld the original four-game suspension. 4. Pinto's suspension began retroactively with Ottawa's first game of the 2023–24 NHL season. As Pinto was a restricted free agent and not under contract at the time of the suspension, no salary was forfeited.
Fines
Players can be fined up to 50% of one day's salary, up to a maximum of $10,000.00 for their first offense, and $15,000.00 for any subsequent offenses (player had been fined in the 12 months prior to this fine). Coaches, non-playing personnel, and teams are not restricted to such maximums, though can still be treated as repeat offenders.
Fines for players/coaches fined for diving/embellishment are structured uniquely and are only handed out after non-publicized warnings are given to the player/coach for their first offense. For more details on diving/embellishment fines:
For coach incident totals, each citation issued to a player on his club counts toward his total. All figures are in US dollars.
Fines listed in italics indicate that was the maximum allowed fine. - Player was considered a repeat offender under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (player had been fined in the 12 months prior to this fine)
Notes
1. All figures are in US dollars. 2. In lieu of a cash fine, Ottawa will forfeit its first-round draft pick in one of the 2024, 2025 or 2026 NHL Entry Drafts. The determination as to which pick will be forfeited will be made by Ottawa within 24 hours of the conclusion of the Draft Lottery for that year.
