The amount is the maximum allowable under the collective bargaining agreement between the NHL and the NHL Players' Association.
The incident occurred 2:12 into the game. Timmins was assessed a minor penalty for cross-checking.
Toronto won the game 3-1.
The Maple Leafs return to action after a four-game road trip when they host the Central Division-leading Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday.
