Brendan Morrow will not be suspended

Dustin Brown received a five-minute boarding penalty and a game misconduct for checking Mike Ribeiro into the boards after the Dallas center took a slap slot from the right point that left him off balance on the follow-through during yesterday's game between the Stars and the Kings.

Morrow then initiated a fight with Brown that resulted in an instigator penalty and a game misconduct for Morrow. The fight happened with 1 minute left to the game.

The NHL has rescinded its one game suspension to Brenden Morrow. Morrow was set to receive an automatic one game suspension for drawing an instigator penalty on Brown. The league also rescinded the automatic $10,000 fine to coach Dave Tippett.
