Alexander Edler has been suspended for three games for his high hit on San Jose's Tomas Hertl. The incident occurred during Thursday's game. The NHL felt the route Edler took to make the check contributed to the head being the principal point of target. Had Edler approached things differently, the league feels he could have "hit him squarely through the body." The three-game suspension will keep Edler out of the lineup until Oct. 19.
