Blues fourth-liner Ivan Barbashev has been suspended for Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final following an illegal check to the head on Marcus Johansson early in Game 5 last night.

Incredibly, Barbashev was issued no penalty on the play:

Ivan Barbashev wasn't given a penalty for this hit in Game 5 of the #StanleyCup Final, but will have a hearing today with the Department of Player Safety.
