My guess is the Phoenix chap will get a fine, but it really should be more. There can be some argument that the first check to the head was a bit of an indavertant play battling for position, but the second one, while on the ground and at the feet of the ref was egregious.
And to soften the blow by giving Osterle, who drops the gloves and doesn't even touch the guy, 2 mins for roughing is just as bad.
