The stars of today aren’t getting injured way more than back then. You’re just failing to remember it accurately.

True back then those were classified as legal hits I'm not saying that it was perfect back then because it definitely wasn't but after watching that documentary ice guardians it really makes a good case for having someone out there policing the players.
Let's say there's no discipline assessed or he gets a fine and Pettersson mises a substantial amount of time because if this? Then really where is the deterrent for buddy to not do the exact same thing again? It's a valid argument and call me old school but it's just how I feel.
But I appreciate the feed back.
