If we aren't ok with it, then frankly hitting must be removed from the game and make it a pure skill sport. Hitting in pro hockey is NOT simply about separating puck from player.

I don't disagree.
But this isn't just hitting. This is man handling a player after the hit.
Hit that player all game long. But don't throw him on the ice like that
