3 game suspension & a $10,000 fine for Edler. League needs to protect their amusing marketing campaign .
Here's how the phone call will go:
Shanahan: Hey.
Edler: Hey.
S: So, about that Hertl-
E: Look, I know everyone's jumping on it, but the guy was playing the puck, drove his head toward my waist, and I didn't even drive through the hit. The guy hit HIMSELF in the head, and speaking of heads, what's up with that helmet? Maybe if he plays with it strapped to his chin instead of his nose this hit looks like what it really was. God, and now I'm gonna get suspended. Look, I know it's not your fault and Bettman's a real asshole who overrules you sometimes, but this really sucks, Shanny.
S: Oh, well, uh, actually I know all that.
E: What?
S: Yeah, I was just calling you to tell you it looked like a clean hit.
E: So I'm not suspended?
S: Nope!
Bettman: Yep!
S+E: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

S: So, about that Hertl hit
E:
S: Oh, well, uh, we think you took a bad line on that hit. Yes you coasted through it but it looks like you targetted the head
E:
S: (pause) that being said Hertl had his head down and put himself in a position to be hit the way he was hit.
E:
S: Alex are you still there ?
Bettman: Alex?
E: yes
S: we're signing you up for Toastmasters
