While not everyone always agree's with everything that happens in the National Hockey League, one of the thing's that fans always seem to have a problem with is the decisions by the NHLPA.

Whether they suspend someone or not, people will always have an issue with their decision. Wont be long enough, it was too long, shouldn't have been a suspension at all etc.. It is a no win position for them, but they do their best to keep things fair.

A play happened last night where Nick Suzuki was coming across the blue line and caught Calgary flames center Nazem Kadri with a direct shoulder to the head that sent him to the ice.

Kadri apparently was definitely not happy with the hit:

It does not look as though that Suzuki meant to intentionally target Kadri's head, but it definitely ended up being a blindside hit to the head.

Kadri was not aware of Suzuki, and Suzuki looked as though he did not intend to hit Kadri at all, but it was still a hit to the head.

Should this receive any supplementary discipline?
