The Department of Player Safety has reviewed these incidents and has come to the following conclusions...

- Grimaldi`s actions are not in anyway a hockey play and bring the game into disrepute.
- He spears Parent in the stomach area with intent and motions to spear him again.
- Grimaldi removes his helmet and throws it violently at Parent, which makes contact in the head area of Parent.
- He violently punches Parent while he is unaware and unable to protect himself.
- These are all reckless actions, with an attempt to injure, and have no regards for the opposition player’s safety.
- Parent is unsuspecting and unable to protect himself from all of the above actions.

The Department of Player Safety has suspended Grimaldi for a total of eighteen (18) games.

As per Elite League rules, Edinburgh will play an import player short for 10 matches.
