Bad hit is supposed to equal suspension. I personally still like the self-policing model from hockey of yester-year, but if we are supposed to be beyond that now, then suspensions are the response to egregious violence.
That's it, that's all. Nothing else. Over-and-done-with. Finished.

And when there is no suspension? Or when suspensions are relatively impotent to prevent such behaviour?
And when the self-policing model of yester-year is volatile, inconsistent, and potentially counter-productive?
And when "enforcers" are becoming less common because regulating misconduct is being transferred to more official routes?
I don't mean to be abrasive. I just disagree that the situation is simple. You may think I am way off base to question the current enforcement model, but at the very least I find it an interesting conversation.
