2020–21 NHL suspensions and fines


 * The following is a list of all suspensions and fines enforced in the National Hockey League (NHL) during the 2020–21 NHL season. It lists which players or coaches of what team have been punished for which offense and the amount of punishment they have received. The season was shortened to 56 games featuring exclusively intra-division play due to the COVID-19 pandemic. No pre-season games were played.

Players' money forfeited due to suspension or fine goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund, while money forfeited by coaches, staff or organizations as a whole goes to the NHL Foundation.

Suspensions
Based on each player's average annual salary, divided by number of days in the season (116) for non-repeat offenders and games (56) for repeat offenders, salary will be forfeited for the term of their suspension.

† - suspension covered at least one 2021 postseason game - Player was considered a repeat offender under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (player had been suspended in the 18 months prior to this suspension)

Fines
Players can be fined up to 50% of one day's salary, up to a maximum of $10,000.00 for their first offense, and $15,000.00 for any subsequent offenses (player had been fined in the 12 months prior to this fine). Coaches, non-playing personnel, and teams are not restricted to such maximums, though can still be treated as repeat offenders.
