Houston Aeros Player Suspended for Two Games

The Internet can be a powerful place. Houston Aeros forward, Justin Fontaine, found that out Sunday night after he used a "gay slur" in a Twitter exchange with a teammate. Minnesota Wild report, Michael Russo, reports that Fontaine and a teammate were going on about the Grammys when the incident occurred. Fontaine has since removed the tweet and repeatedly apologized, but has also been suspended for the next two games.

Fontaine is a 24 year old right-handed right winger listed at 5'10" and 170 pounds. He was born in Bonnyville, Alberta and played college hockey for the University of Minnesota-Duluth for four years in the WCHA before signing with the Wild organization as a free agent this season.
