Elbow down. Standing still. 98% of the contact was due to Aho's momentum / speed which Aho controls, NOT Gio.
If Gio is suspended I suggest Flames players start lowering their heads and running into divisional rivals. Would be great to have Daughty and/or Pavalski suspended because they were standing still and "Hit" us in the head!

This is easily the most irresponsible suggestion ever. But in the end, I think the spirit of the rules are reasonably clear in that they are intended to reduce head injuries. Giordano's shoulder hit Aho's head VERY hard, and I don't see how his stationary position has any bearing on that.
