Mankato's Bruess suspended again

For the second time in a month, Mankato forward Trevor Bruess has been suspended.

The WCHA announced he has been suspended for one game because of his actions in last Saturday's league game against St. Cloud State. In that game, Bruess had a pair of kneeing penalties -- one a five-minute major.

The suspension will be served during Friday's first-round playoff series game against Wisconsin.

Bruess also was suspended for his actions during a Saturday night game against UND on Feb. 14. In that game, Bruess also was penalized for kneeing. In another unpenalized incident, he took Sioux defenseman Derrick LaPoint into the boards from behind. LaPoint broke both bones in his leg and is out for the season.
