Gryba gets two games because shanny said in his rambling explanation that it was two games because the head (in his eyes) was the principle point of contact.

When you watch the Borque gif is that not a blatant headshot? Should that not be equal to Gryba's apparent headshot?

I swear shanny sits in his office and throws darts at a board to determine any suspensions
The Gryba decision is inexplicable, but that doesn't elevate Bourque's elbow to suspendable. There was nowhere near as much force in that as their was with Ference or Abdelkadar. It was a cheap shot, but it's not suspendable.
