So basically if someone accidentally (or not) trips a guy and he hits his head on the ice or breaks a bone falling the guy who trips someone can get called for a five minute major and ejected based on the 'results' of the play whereas if someone overtly spears a guy in the jewels and the guy walks away no penalty or fine if it's the three blind refs of the Tampa series last year.
Other than blood which is an obvious thing, I'm not for basing an in-game penalty off of the severity of the injury. Just wait till guys start feigning serious injuries to get calls then magically prop back up once the call is made, the NHL will turn into professional soccer complete with the magic spray.
