That’s really, really dirty. 5-8 games would be good.

Should be 5+ games.

But it's a former team of Parros, and actually one of Parros former teammates, so they will probably say he's never been suspended before and as a first time offender he only gets 2 games.

I was just trying to find his prior suspension history… he has none? Kind of surprised.

That's ugly. After seeing Kesserling get two minutes for smashing Zary, I can see this only being 1 game.

I think it should be 10+ games. It looks like he intentionally tries to take his head off.

That is what needs to be removed from the game. Predatory hit.

I think it'll be 10+.
Pretty rare a play is that cut & dry dirty. There's usually some arguments that can be made about a guy turned late, lowered down and dropped their head etc etc.
This one, no defense you could make at all.

You really have to wonder what goes on in his head.
It's not retaliating, or along the boards, or anything where the guy is turning or ducking or something where it's a bit of coincidental timing that there is contact to the head...it's a guy skating freely up the ice, and the expected body contact is fine, but he just knowingly decides to throw his elbow up at the same time, completely premeditated.
