NHL Player Safety makes an annoucement regarding the Aulie/Stajan hit last night. (VIDEO)

Keith Aulie of the Oilers found himself the recipient of a 5 min major and was ejected from the game after nearly decapitating Matt Stajan of the flames at center ice. There has been healthy debate already on both sides arguing that it was either a dirty hit from Aulie, or that Stajan was responsible for having his head down looking back at the incoming puck. Howveer the NHL has announced just moments ago that Keith Aulie will have a hearing with their department of player safety tonight. Should Aulie be suspended? And if so how many games should he get for the hit?

Edmonton's Keith Aulie will have a hearing tonight for an illegal check to the head of Calgary's Matt Stajan. — NHL Player Safety (@NHLPlayerSafety) January 1, 2015
