I can understand the rule of hitting a man while he's not looking and has no connection to the play, but five games is way too harsh. I know it's a new rule that they're trying to enforce more harshly but if the roles were reversed and that was one of our guys, I would expect a fine and at worst a one game suspension. Even with a history of hitting I would expect max two to three games, but almost a third of the season is a little extreme.
