Boston University freshman defenseman Ahti Oksanen will miss the first two regular season games because his junior team played two games with what the NCAA considers a professional player, a school spokesperson confirmed.<\/p>\n
The NCAA punishment for such an infraction is one game for each instance, thus the two-game penalty.<\/p>\n
Oksanen played for the Espoo Blues U20s in his native Finland last season and split the 2010-11 season between the Blues’ Under-18 and Under-20 teams.<\/p>\n
The punishment was reported by the Daily Free Press<\/em> on Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n
