I doubt it
I think its awesome that the "nobody" Ferkland suckered Bieksa into dumb plays
I honestly think Bieksa might be the lowest IQ player in the NHL

The way the league has been making a big fuss about head hits, Hamhuis seems automatic to me. But then again he's not a 3rd pairing bum so he gets a pass. Probably no to the others.

None, and a fifty-cent fine for Willie.
I have no faith in the NHL to do anything rational.

The difference between Friday and tonight was the Flames were just gooning things up at the end of the game while the Canucks were trying to injure the Flames skilled players with cheap hits on Gaudreau and Bennett. I'm sure the league isn't blind to this but given how much the Canucks organization whines that the league is out to get them there's pressure not to do anything here. The NHL has proven over and over that they are reactive not proactive and will just wait for a player to have his season ended before they consider action.

Hamhuis will get a suspension that was a scary hit on a young player.

No suspensions, a fine to Hamhuis and a fine to Desjardins of the same amount that Hartley received. The Burrows hit on Gaudreau was a 2 minute penalty, nothing more and the instigator will be rescinded as they always are. Why would Bieksa get suspended?

Bieksa: Nothing to see here.
Hamhuis: 1 game for a dangerous hit to the head. We want to protect our star players because we know what is in our best interests.

Agreed 100%. I think if the league doesn't step in they condone something potentially really nasty in the coming games and Hamhuis is the one that is different from what happened in game 2.

Bieksa is lucky they didn't call instigating because he was punching Ferland in the face while he was digging for the puck. There's plenty of evidence to support that the Canucks were out to injure Flames star players.

Hamhuis should. Dirty hit to the head of one of our most effective players. Deserves a game. Wouldn't surprise me if the league doesn't though.

Bieksa, definitely. So fricken dirty. Hamuis should be if it was a regular season game. Burrows no, as much as I hate the guy.

But they didn't call it and he didn't do anything of note to get suspended otherwise. He is a pretty big liability on the ice at this point in his career anyway.

I think Hamhuis has a good chance of being suspended 1 game, but I can't see Burrows suspended. They'll rescind it like they did with Engy.

Agreed.
Deliberate hit to head, initial point of contact.
The instigator gets rescinded
