I've always thought sending (what many would deem) over reaction, over the top suspensions that could potential derail a guys career, for intentional (even avoidable) incidents.

Krieder on Price : rest of the playoffs + 8 regular season games. Over the top, kill the NYR playoffs hopes? Probably.

Slashes to the wrist (like the multiple ones Johnny has gotten) : 10 games, if it breaks his wrist, 25 games.

Head shots : starting at 10 games for intentional, maybe 5 for avoidable; repeat intentional incidents, perhaps even 20 games or half a season.

5 major suspensions and you are banned from the NHL.

Way over the top, but that would definitely make you not want to do these things that could potentially (or very likely, in some circumstances) kill your career.
