ESPN.com - The NHL has fined Predators forward Patric Hornqvist $2,500 but decided not to suspend him for his elbow to the head of Bruins rookie forward Tyler Seguin in Thursday night's game, according to an ESPN.com report


Here's the hit:

Can't believe all he got for that was a fine. It was a blatant and intentional shot to the head, he should of at least gotten a few games for it.

What do you guys think?

NHL says they want to get serious about head shots and then do everything possible to contradict that notion. You figure out what the hell Colin Campbell is ever thinking and you let the rest of us know

Certainly a few games and a fine.

I eagerly await what is coming to Matt Cooke after his elbow today.
