Should be a fine based on previous decisions by DoPS, but fully expecting a 2 game suspension. Player safety tweeted that he'd get an in person hearing almost immediately after the play happenedWith Matthews being penciled in for a hearing for his cross-check to Dahlin's neck, I figure it was time once again to explore the DoPS Farmer Almanac to get some potential insight on what the outcome might be!
Player Offense Notes Joel Edmundson 
May 22, 2021
Cross-checking - No supplemental disciplineBoth Edmundson and Simmonds received 2 minute minors for roughing. Interestingly, Shea Weber did receive a fine for cross-checking Simmonds in the head in this same exact game Jonathan Drouin

September 26, 2021
Cross-checking - 2 game suspension
(1 preseason + 1 regular season; $4,470.84)Offense was deemed beyond a fine. Salary is forfeited for each regular season game suspended Auston Matthews 
March 13, 2022
Cross-checking - ???Matthews was offered a hearing which allows for the possibility of a suspension.
Matthews would lose $58,201.25 per game suspended, and can be fined up to $10,000 with a hearing being offered
After referencing the Alamanac... there is no pattern...
