Geekie will be suspended for Friday's matchup with Carolina, the Department of Player Safety announced Thursday.

Geekie left the bench for the express purpose of starting a fight, which resulted in not only 19 minutes in penalties in Thursday's clash with Tampa Bay but will also see the 20-year-old center sitting out a game. While his suspension may not have a significant impact considering it's just the preseason, Geekie needs every available minute to impress team brass in the hopes of securing a roster spot for Opening Night against the Hurricanes on Oct. 11.
