Report: No discipline expected for John Carlson after hit on Johansen

John Carlson appears to have avoided the long arm of the NHL's law.

The Washington Capitals defenseman will reportedly not face supplemental discipline following a questionable hit to Ryan Johansen's head during a 5-4 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday, reports Alex Prewitt of the Washington Post.

Carlson was assessed a two-minute minor penalty on the play.

Here's another look at the incident for the court of public opinion to decide.
