Brampton Steelheads defenceman Luke Dragusica was suspended indefinitely by the OHL, pending a hearing, on Saturday.

Dragusica was assessed a match penalty after landing a two-handed slash to the head of Oshawa Generals defenceman Brady Blaseg in a game on Friday.

Both players were involved in a collision behind the net, and after Dragusica got up, he swung his stick at the head of Blaseg, causing him to fall to the ice. Dragusica then cross-checked Blaseg while he was down.

Blaseg was tended to by a trainer, and he was left bloodied as players from both teams got into a brawl.

Earlier this season, Kitchener Rangers forward Michael Hlacas received a six-game suspension for a blindside check from behind.
