As already answered, there was no disqualification penalty, and so no
future effects.

*Had* there been a disqualification penalty, the penalized player would
be subject to Rule 4-5:  (quote)

SECTION 5. a. A disqualification penalty involves the removal of a
player, including a goalkeeper, for the remainder of the game plus a
major penalty, and may be assessed before the start of the game, during
or after the game.

When coincidental disqualification penalties are assessed against an
equal number of players of each team, the teams then shall be permitted
substitutions on the ice for the penalized players.

The offending player may not go to the penalty bench and may not, for
the duration of the penalty (including any progressive
game-disqualification penalty), occupy any area designated or reserved
for players, and may not communicate or contact team personnel in any
manner for the duration of the disqualification penalty(s). A
substitute, other than a spare goalkeeper, must enter the penalty bench
immediately in the place of the disqualified player(s) and enter the
game after the five-minute penalty(s) has elapsed.

A player may be assessed more than one disqualification penalty in a game.

b. The progressive game-disqualification structure shall be:

(1) First disqualification penalty--that game plus one.

(2) Second disqualification penalty--that game plus two.

(3) Third disqualification penalty--that game plus three.

(4) Fourth disqualification penalty--that game plus four.

(The progression shall continue after the fourth disqualification penalty.)

c. Progressive game-disqualification penalties shall carry over to the
next season for players with remaining eligibility.

d. The team of the disqualified player(s) shall be permitted to dress a
substitute player or players (equal to the number of disqualified
players) in the next scheduled game.

A player who receives a disqualification penalty in any game (including
exhibition games) shall not be permitted to play in the team's next
played regular-season or tournament game against an NCAA member
institution. Exhibition games cannot be used to fulfill the
disqualification penalty.
