I agree with that statement, Scape, but I don't think this is a headshot. It's a penalty for interference and, because there's an injury, that makes it a major penalty. But a head-shot is defined as "targeting the head" and I don't see that here. I see this as an unfortunate confluence between head and arena geography. I don't believe Chara had any idea that the turn-buckle was there. Yes, he appearead to try and finish the check, but I don't think he meant to target the head for a shot. He deserves a suspension for the 5 + GM, but this is more of a fluke play than the sort of dirty penalties we want removed from the game.
