This is the nhl. There is a reason probably a dozen players Johnny's size have been able to make it at this level in the last 30-40 years.
Every small player runs the risk of getting manhandled. It should absolutely a penalty for roughing, maybe a fine, but this is not a predatory hit. Guys should not use less force when hitting or finishing off a hit because it happens to be a smaller player
