Zac Rinaldo (probably) not suspended for hit on Sean Couturier

Last night, Zac Rinaldo laid a hard and arguably dirty hit on Sean Couturier.

Most of us assumed suspension, but today the Department of Player Safety informed the Bruins that they are stuck with Zac Rinaldo as soon as tomorrow, per Renaud Lavoie:

No suspension for #bruins Zac Rinaldo. Skates are not leaving the ice and the head was not the point of contact. #tvasports

I guess that sorta makes sense.
