Per NHL.com:

The National Hockey League announced on Monday night that Montreal Canadiens forward Georges Laraque has been suspended for five games without pay, and will forfeit $38,860.10 in salary for an incident that took place during a game against the Detroit Red Wings last Saturday.

At 8:52 of the first period, Laraque was involved in an incident where he deliberately extended his knee and, through his actions, caused an injury to Detroit defenseman Niklas Kronwall.  Laraque was assessed a minor penalty for tripping on the play.

“Mr. Laraque’s actions were dangerous and caused a significant injury to his opponent,” said NHL Senior Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations Colin Campbell.

Laraque will miss Montreal’s next five games – Nov. 24 against Columbus; Nov. 25 at Pittsburgh; Nov. 28 against Washington, Dec. 1 against Toronto and Dec. 3 at Buffalo.  He will be eligible to return on Dec. 4 against the Boston Bruins.
