I'm interested in seeing some thoughts behind this, Is there anything you guys would like too see, or would suggest to the NHL to cut down on these

Just keep suspending and fining on the various degrees of offenses.
I guess I would also like to see a shot to the head be a 5 min major regardless.
I think this one of those things you see it, and you know its a penalty/fine/suspension.

I personally would like to see the instigator rule removed. I think this allows guys to play with that bit of reckless in their game

It's disheartening to see Blackhawk fans among other fans still not concerned with the amount of head injuries or the long-term repercussions of those injuries.

Yeah these are all things that need to be done, and done consistently. I've also seen lots about suspending the player for the amount of the injury time

That, I'm not so sure of. Luckily, Hossa appeared to escape with major injury this time, but that doesn't mean that Hansen shouldn't have been suspended. Hopefully the days of Raffi Torres and John Scott acting like goons are going to be extinct for this next generation of hockey.

anytime a player goes down from what could be a headshot...i say could be because its easy for refs to miss the entire shot to the head....the play should be reviewed if refs didnt get a full picture and if it was a shot to the head its a game misconduct and a 5 min major. i also to hate the instigator penalty.

It's tough to say a shot to the head would be a 5 min major automatically - as I'd think it would lend itself to 'flopping' to an extent...

This is the exact reason that Dewey's suggestion to have them review it with video right away is a great suggestion. It would allow them to determine if it would need to be a major, or if it needs to be called for a flop. I also think that Edzo had a great thought the other night when he said that flopping should immediately negate the minor called on the other team.
And yes, the instigator rule needs to go away.

No, no absolutely no.
Just say, for example Hossa, Kane or Toews knock out a 4th line scrub player for the game with an accidental head shot. With this line of thought, the team could hold out the crap player just to keep your star out as well.
Suspension for the length of the injury is a bad idea.

I dont mind the case by case suspension per shanahans review. but i agree you cant suspend the same as length of injury.

Give every coach 1 video review 'option' per game . If he thinks it was a headshot he can use this option and ask for a video review from Toronto like they use with goals .
If Toronto agrees - it's a game misconduct , a 4min power play , and an automatic $25,000 fine ( Shannahan can add supplemental discipline later ). If the coach is wrong then he loses his time-out for remainder of the game .

So he can only challenge if he still has his TO? If there is a head shot early, the other team can get away with additional ones because there is only one challenge?
Don't like that plan.

it should be reviewed when a player suffers head injury and is out for the game.

Not saying you're aligning with this Dews, but I've always hated the philosophy that longer injuries = steeper punishment. I feel like players shouldn't be rewarded because their cheap shot wasn't cheap enough to get hurt. You have to punish the intent.
But one aspect of that philosophy is something I find interesting: assuming that a hit to the head causes enough of an injury that trainers are on the ice attending to a player, that should give ample time for some sort of video review while that player is being assisted, couldn't it? Dial up Toronto while the trainers are doing their thing and then make your ruling based off of that. I think that'd make a lot of sense.

Anything put into the rules that leads to more penalties will just encourage flopping. I don't want to see the game change like that... Might as well just play soccer if that is the case.

Good point I guess , but I still think it would have good effect cuz it's not like there are that many hits of this type anyways , and players " knowing it's out there " would cut down these types of plays . I don't think it would need to be used that often , but it's better to have it there than not .
Besides we all know coaches save their time-outs for late in the game about 95% of the time anyways and any rule that would cut down on these types of plays is a good one .
