Because disorientation is not a permanent disability, and a guy can be dazed momentarily but have that fog clear relatively quickly.

And, if he was so injured, how would he be able to push Henderson with the force he did, or even get up, without falling, in the first place?

Because basic laws of physics apply to everything. Including collisions between big hockey players who are moving and unsuspecting linesmen who are not aware of the impending collision and are therefore unable to brace for it.

There was injury on the play, the opponent was defenseless.

Likely irrelevant in this case. The abuse of official rules are predicated on intent rather than result. I agree with the suspension, but I doubt anyone could prove intent to injure. So whether or not Henderson was hurt, it's probably a ten gamer.
