It's basically saying, you aren't allowed to make any mistakes NHL, and if you do, you aren't allowed to do anything with the things you do catch or decide to look at. Can you imagine if all other areas of life worked like that?
Here you go Mr. Murderer, you get to go free, as we were unable to convict some other murder's of their crimes, and it wouldn't be right to punish you if we can't assure you all other murders will also be caught and convicted.

When games and specific plays are able to be reviewed after the fact (just like this so called ‘elbow’) then no the NHL can’t arbitrarily pick and choose which are reviewed/disciplined and which are deemed OK.
With that said I’m not surprised, spin the wheel NHL justice department.
