Yeah agreed, wish that didn't happen. Gio had both legs way out from his body, he was in a real wide stance and I don't think he intended to knee on knee him, he just didn't move and let Koivu burn by him but it was a bit iffy.
I don't see him getting suspended given the call on the ice but as has been said, NHL justice and officiating is terribly inconsistent so hard to know.
