Not sure what would be a suitable amount, guess it would depend on each player? Players who make >$3mill get fined $100,000 per game. Players who make <$3mill get fined $50,000 per game. Coaches get fined the same amount his player is paying.

Example,

Keith suspended for 5 games. He pays out $500,000. Quenville pays out $500,000. Total of $1mill.

This way players would think twice before committing to a hit. Coaches would get fined because they put those players out. Hopefully this would be a deterrence.

And they should implement a system for repeat offenders, after getting suspended 3x(separate occasions) they should get an automatic 10 games.
Add another fine of 2+ million dollar fine on the team. That'll make them feel the pinch. So that all levels of management feel the burden.

But goodluck getting everyone to agree on this issue.
