Tim Stutzle should finally be suspended by the NHL, much to the delight of Habs fans

Tim Stutzle is an extremely talented player, but he has a tendency to act out and is building a bad reputation in the NHL because of it. Talk to Brendan Gallagher, who spoke openly about this last season.

But Gallagher isn't the only victim of Stutzle's dives, and many players and fans have called for league action on the young forward.

In the Senators-Ducks game on Friday, Stutzle gave the league a reason to call him out when he violently hit Simon Benoit in the face with the knob of his stick.

At the time of writing, the NHL has yet to confirm that there will be a meeting scheduled with Stutzle, but it would be very surprising if he were to walk away without any punishment for such a dangerous act.

Fans weren't happy as they showed their displeasure:
