That one is right on the line. There is contact to the head but also contact to the shoulder and chest.

Suspension could go either way to be honest, my guess is a fine as a first time offender just because we are so sensitive to headshots now. IMO it's not that bad and wasn't a shot targeting only the head as the principle point of contact.

Edit: looks worse is that one angle in the full video. Kind of places his shoulder into the side of his head. Kind of similar to the hit on Naslund
