Fail Suspension

Sorry this is late, my internet has been slow lately, but the NHL has had a massive fail once again with punishing players for dirty plays. Recently we found out that star defenseman Duncan Keith was suspended 6 games for slashing Minnesota Wild's Charlie Coyle with his stick and drew blood. Keith has done this before when he used his stick to intentionally slash Kings forward Jeff Carter in the face in the 2013 Western Conference Finals and only got a minor penalty. This time he did almost the same thing, but drew blood. The reason this is a fail is because Keith has already done something like this and his suspension makes him miss the last five games of the regular season and the first game of the playoffs. This could be good for Keith since he gets to rest before the playoffs so he should be ready to go when  he plays game two. This should be a good thing for the Blackhawks and the NHL once again fails o stand tall on the suspension. So basically there was no lesson learned ,but the NHL is light on suspensions.  Should Keith have been suspended longer? Will this benefit the Blackhawks? Did Keith learn a lesson? Comment down below if you have a different perspective! stay tuned....
