This ISO on Scheifele has definitely put me in the "firm suspension" camp. I would like to see something in the 5-7 game range. We don't know where exactly Scheifele decided he was going to try and end Evans career but I would guess by the blue line for sure. He was full speed charging down the ice, like what did he expect would happen?

I'm a bit in the Evans has to be aware mindset, as I believe players making/ leaving themselves vulnerable is a huge problem in all levls of hockey, but you can be as aware as anyone, and when another player decides they are going to take you out, sometimes there is nothing you can do about it. Evans could've pinned the puck against the end wall, and based on how this played out, you can bet Scheifele would've hammered him into the boards behind the net. Just a dumb, horrible, selfish, amateur reaction from Scheifele with zero regard for any consequences of his action. Lucky Evans is seemingly ok and does not have a broken neck.
