Winnipeg's Pierre-Luc Dubois should be getting a kickback from Player Safety after being on the receiving end of two incidents that prompted fines - $5000 to Calgary's Blake Coleman and $2500 to Carson Soucy of the Seattle Kraken. Nic Aube-Kubel gets a 3-game suspension, nothing for Vancouver's Edler after a knee-on-knee hit on the Oilers' Connor McDavid, nor for Romanov's hit on Pinto. Plus, GM meetings mean possible rule changes, including tweaks to helmets, hand passes, and possibly to goal post pegs.
