Another player is paying the price for a stick infraction.

Calgary Flames forward Alex Chiasson was assessed a five-minute major and a game misconduct Wednesday for spearing Philadelphia Flyers forward Nick Cousins.

The infraction itself doesn't look to be very vicious, but a spear is a spear.

Luckily the Flames were able to kill off the penalty and a subsequent two-man advantage after Sean Monahan took a delay of game penalty.
