That's been the standard in NHL for a lot of years now. Star player commits a nasty, nothing gets done. Occasionally a small fine. That was a cheap and dirty hit, and Patrick Roy is well known for his hot temper. This could get ugly, but with a few months between games, it will have simmered down some.
I'm sure there will be some retribution in the rematch, but most likely the Ref's won't let it get out of hand and will clamp down quickly.
I wish the league would be more consistent when it comes to dealing with that stuff, but they aren't.
