While I get while the ref gave the match suspension, I hope Ferland doesn't get a suspension.
Yes, it was a dumb move and deserved a penalty, and I don't really disagree with the match penalty (I wouldn't have disagreed with just two minutes either), but Ferland did try to hit something else than the head.
(It was just pretty much unavoidable because of the way he went into the situation. Which is what makes it dumb. That could have easily gone a lot worse without any malice.)
