Looks like the NHL had the injury info when they made their decision.
Subban is an important player for the Habs so I don't blame the Senators for pursuing a suspension. This time of the year is really all about gamesmanship and gaining any edge you can. Even if Stone suffered a broken wrist I doubt that there would have been a suspension. I would have no problem with the NHL coming down harder on these types of slashes in the future but in the regular season first and not just spring it out in the playoffs like say the NFL did with the tuck rule which robbed a teams of a playoff victory.
