Glencross has been given a three-game suspension. Drury was pulled less than one minute into the first period of Saturday's 3-1 Flames victory over the Rangers at the Saddledome, after Glencross clipped Drury with a shoulder to the head.

    8O 8O (although it looked like Drury wasn't even close to the puck - still, that should be interference and that's it). Is there a video with a closer view by any chance?

    Drury got nailed by Neil a couple of years ago - he was blindsided as well, but it was much much worse IMO.

    Looked like a questionable hit to me. Maybe not headhunting, but there's definitely extra shoulder thrown into the mix.

    There is a rule (although rarely used) for a 5-minute major for interference. That would be the appropriate call here. All penalties involving injury are supposed to be majors and should result in a suspension of some sort. It wasn't horribly nasty, but penalyzing this type of a hit is a good idea. It sends a message that you can't hit vulnerable players.
