Nikita Kucherov won't miss a game, but Dalton Prout will.

The Columbus Blue Jackets defender has received a one-game suspension for the sucker punch he landed on Kucherov's chin Sunday afternoon.

Prout will forfeit almost $6,000 in salary.

Kucherov was forced from the game as a result of the blow, but will be in the lineup Tuesday when the Lightning visit the Toronto Maple Leafs.

The Department of Player Safety's ruling is consistent with a January incident involving Los Angeles Kings winger Milan Lucic. He was banned one game for popping an unsuspecting Kevin Connauton after a stoppage around the Arizona Coyotes' goal.
