I totally missed this last night. I don't think a 1-game suspension for that would have been completely unreasonable.

Don't agree. He got a fine for interference. If it had been for a high, head, late hit, he would have received a suspension. Perreault was totally selling it.
 
Joe's physicality was quite noticeable last night. Suspension or not, I hope he keeps it up. He's a guy who can punish opponents, something lacking in this lineup.

I mean it was a high, head, late hit. Don't think it was malicious or he intended to really hit the head, which is why I don't think anything more than a 1-game suspension would be necessary. But he could have done more to avoid it.
 
I don't think it appeared to be particularly malicious either - there was minimal follow-through with his arm/shoulder, he didn't really run at him or leap or anything. But Joe is 6" taller than Perreault so if anything it was a bit careless. Definitely late. Suspendable? Very borderline in my opinion.

How Simmonds walks away with a penalty when Dubois clearly used his opportunity to fall heavily on Campbell and drive his head towards the ice is complete horses...
