Assess them on how dangerous the decision/play was, not a quick response from the player that isn't proven.

The NHL definitely doesn't have it quite right yet when it comes to these hits. The blood is what led to the major penalty. Kylington is a punching bag in the corners and he might want to stay down for a few more seconds sometimes. The major call was technically correct but there's no fairness to these.
League got it right determining the penalty and ejection was plenty of punishment already.
