What does the NHL wheel of justice say?

I like Keith but that was reckless , based on past sins give him 2 games
if Carter did not have a visor on and he got him in the eye that could have been very ugly, especially since the toe of the blade was pointing in. NHL has long proved that there are 3 sets of rules , one for the 'star' players , one for the serial offenders ( Torres ) and one for the rest of the league

should be a multi game suspension. but with the nhl, who knows.

He'll get nothing. Probably just a fine

Definately should be 2 or 3 game suspension. Accident? Not at all. It is not an accident if you meant to hit him with the stick and got him in the face by mistake:

"Yeah, it was accidental," Keith said after the game. "Obviously, I wanted to give him a tap, but not where I got him. I felt bad. I'm glad to see that he came back. It was just a scuffle. It was an accident."

He lost his cool and pulled a McSorely 'light'. I'm gonna say he gets 1 game from Shanny but I'd give him 2 if I were the NHL disciplinarian.

He got off lucky. He should be sitting for more.
