Dallas Stars captain Jamie Benn was fined $5,000 by the NHL on Friday after his exchange with Winnipeg Jets forward Mark Scheifele during the third period of Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinal series.

The Jets staved off elimination with a 4-0 victory over the Stars on Thursday. Dallas, which hosts Winnipeg in Game 6 on Saturday, leads 3-2 in the best-of-seven series.

The fine is the maximum allowable under the collective bargaining agreement.

Winnipeg was nursing a 3-0 lead with 6:32 remaining in the third period when Benn pulled down Scheifele near the boards.

The players were separated briefly and Scheifele was held by linesman Ryan Daisy when Benn unleashed a short jab to the jaw of the Jets forward. The blow caused both Scheifele and Daisy to fall to the ice.

Benn received a roughing minor and a 10-minute misconduct.

Jets forward Brandon Tanev, who attempted to intervene, was issued a game misconduct and Scheifele received a roughing penalty.
