Philadelphia Flyers forward Brayden Schenn won't face supplemental discipline for a hit to the head of Detroit Red Wings blue-liner Brendan Smith, reports Sportsnet's John Shannon.
Here's the hit:
While head contact is clear, Schenn appeared to try and avoid Smith all together, but failed to do so - he wasn't assessed a penalty on the play either.
Smith briefly exited the contest before ultimately returning.
