Cody McLeod Won't Face Suspension For Hit On Jonas Brodin

In yesterday evening's game against the Colorado Avalanche, Cody McLeod received a 5 minute major and was ejected from the game for a hit from behind on Jonas Brodin that sent him head-first into the boards. Brodin was hurt but later returned to the game.

The hit was reckless and dirty, and Jonas Brodin is fortunate to not have sustained a serious injury:

McLeod received a 5-game suspension earlier in the year for boarding Niklas Kronwall and would be considered a repeat-offender:

Wild fans might recall the last time Cody McLeod boarded a Wild player and got off the hook:

What do you think, Wilderness? Did McLeod deserve a suspension, or is this the right call?
