Personally, its a border line hit, but there was no intent to injure, at least it didnt look like it. The hit was not high, but the follow through with his arms was, but the main point of contact is not Alberta head. I doubt he gets suspended for that hit.
When players get hurt from hits, they don't always deserve to be suspended. Him being kicked out the game is probably the right call though, because it happened so fast, it probably looked a lot worse live. Slow motion and replays show it was no AS bad. Anyways that my take on the hit.
