If Chicago were in the east fighting it out with Phili and Detroit and Boston I doubt anyone would say this is an insignificant suspension. The nhl can't just give him a boatload of games so that it affects a playoffs series. It's a fair suspension

I agree, the point in the season is circumstantial and shouldn't be taken into account. Six games is a good length for his action, it is, compared to a lot of suspensions quite harsh.

Frustrating how it works out with Chicago already qualifying, but I'm okay with the six games.
