Stars forward Mikko Rantanen enters the offseason $5,000 lighter, fined that amount Friday for cross-checking Wild forward Kirill Kaprizov on Thursday night.
Minnesota defeated Dallas 5-2 in Game 6 to finish off a 4-2 win in the Western Conference first-round series.
The incident occurred early in the third period with the game tied at 2-2 when Rantanen delivered a high hit while battling for a loose puck. He drew a two-minute penalty for roughing and Kaprizov was able to stay in the game.
Rantanen, 29, recorded seven points (one goal, six assists) and 12 penalty minutes in six games in the series.
He had 77 points (22 goals, 55 assists) in 64 games during the regular season, his first full campaign with Dallas.
