Though this would be a minor inconvenience for Therrien, what is he going to do? Not play Subban?
Furthermore, though there was no benefit on this particular play, he wasn't assessed a penalty on the play it appears so if that would have somehow helped their team by taking a player out of the play (or drawing a penalty), it still benefits the Habs. Fining a player but not calling the call on the ice/suspending them seems like a waste of time really. At least they're publicly shamed.
