(VIDEO): Dan Carcillo has a meeting with Board of Player Safety for cross-check.

Well it is looking more and more like Dan Carcillo will be missing from the Blackhawks lineup for a lengthy period of time. It wa announced today that he has been offered an in-person hearing by the Department of Player Safety for his crosscheck on Jets forward Mathieu Perreault. According to the NHL's Collective Bargaining Agreement an in-person hearing is required for any suspension that over 5 games. While that may not seem lengthy to you, one must remember that Carcillo is a repeat offender. This fact would likely boost his suspension to 7-10 games. Perrault was hurt on the play and the severity of Perrault's injury will likely influence the length of the suspension as well. Here is the play in question.
