Dallas Stars forward Steve Ott can return to play
in tomorrow night's game against the San Jose Sharks.

The NHL announced Monday that Ott has been suspended without pay
for one game for attempting to injure Anaheim's Travis Moen during
a fight Saturday.

Ott and Moen squared off after the final horn sounded in
Anaheim's 4-3 victory Saturday over Dallas. Ott's hand made contact
with Moen's eye, which game officials ruled was an eye-gouge and
gave him a match penalty for attempting to injure.

Ott left the ice with two cuts on his face.

He was suspended indefinitely a day later. Ott did not play
Sunday against Pittsburgh.

He was suspended for three games in March 2008 and is now
considered a repeat offender by the league.
