The Puck Soup guys did a Patreon episode in which they assigned modern-day suspensions to hits from the past - stuff from the 80s into the early aughts. It's interesting to think about how much the game has changed in past twenty or thirty years.
Since this is B's board, I'll suggest this 1987 Dale Hunter hit on Joe Nieuwendyk - if only because it's reminiscent of the night a bunch of Montreal fans overloaded their city's emergency services line.

So. How many games does Hunter get here in 2022? In the interest of full disclosure, Chara received ZERO games for his hit on Pacioretty. Suffice it to say, I think Hunter gets a pretty hefty suspension.
