Carson Soucy to have a hearing for Cross-check to Connor McDavid - suspended 1 game (MOD WARNING IN OP)

[LTIR]

He shouldn't be suspended. McDavid started the whole thing and his head immediately moved which is what caused the cross-check to the face.

That said, the NHL is also a joke by not announcing the date and time with the game being tomorrow. If you're already pre-determined it's going to be a suspension before hearing someone's case, why even have a hearing?

Hopefully he isn't suspended... let it play out on the ice and suspend people after game 4 .. Oilers need more ammo for next game.

Why stop there? Ban him for life!

Expecting a fine. It's a dirty play from both guys at the end of the game. If this was Hughes instead of McDavid the entire team would be crying over it.

The clip above is so disingenuous, leaves out the slashing beforehand.

This is the full clip:

Soucy gets a retaliatory swing right back and then proceeds to crosscheck him in the face. Not to mention he initiated it all with a crosscheck beforehand after the game was over.

Oilers actually want Soucy playing. He can put himself out of position going for a big hit like in game 3 and give us breakaway goals. Guy is a complete loser and pylon out there.

Should get suspended, nobody cares about these dusty 3rd line D, you cannot cross check McJesus. Sit him for the rest of the series.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

McD starts stuff & the league steps in.

Unfortunate play with Zadorov pushing him. Soucy wouldn't have hit him in the head otherwise.

 

[LTIR]

A two handed slash after the game is a lot. McDavid initiated it and should accept the consequences.

Lol... he got a 2 hand slash back, and crosscheck from behind and one to the face.. I guess next time an Oiler gets slashed on shins he is is good to assault the Nuck.. got it.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Of course McDavid starting it won't even be mentioned by the league. Don't start something if you can't take the punishment. McDavid should be charged for assault using his stick as a weapon and thrown him in jail for 30 days. Make him watch his team lose the series from the jail cell.

Hopefully he isn't suspended... let it play out on the ice and suspend people after game 4 .. Oilers need more ammo for next game.

Seems unlikely he's not suspended due to the fact he won't be eligible to play until the hearing is completed and the NHL hasn't even announced the day they're going to have it.

With the way the NHL operates, he's likely out for (at least) the series.

Push vs vicious cross check after the game.... depends on what color glasses u r wearing... Zadorov needs to leave game 4 in an ambulance after that.

 

[VanCity Millionaires]

If Soucy is suspended I wouldn't mind seeing if Aaron Rome is available for the next game. Then we can show McBaby a good time.

That’s been happening all playoffs. Have you even watched the games? Lol.

Exactly, I can't see why this is on Soucy. That stick lands on the chest if Zad stays out of it.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Weird. It was open season on the Sedins all playoffs. All Canuck fans heard was that’s playoff hockey and need to toughen up. And now McDavid initiates a scrum and the league jumps in to protect him.
Double standard for McDavid. Embarrassing.

 

[bossram]

Nothing cheaper than Zad hitting McDavid in the back while he was engaged with Soucy. A p***y move by a big man.

McPissbaby starts some s*** and can't handle what's coming. Now the Oilers have to cry to the league because someone touched him.

Way rougher stuff has happened this playoffs without any suspensions. But McCrybaby can't be touched!

 

[dr robbie]

Is no one else concerned about the sniper that obviously took McD out and caused him to crumble into the crosscheck? I would say he/she is most at fault for this series of events.

 

[LTIR]

That’s been happening all playoffs. Have you even watched the games? Lol.

Sure, let it carry on... it's over to Kane... let's see if follows up his 'f*** around and find out' .. Zadorov f***ed around.. your move Kane.

 

[22Brad Park]

bahahahahaha Marchand gets sucker punched for a concussion by repeat offender and out of playoffs and crickets.THE NHL CAN FK RIGHT OFF WITH ITS DIFFERENT RULES FOR DIFFERENT PLAYERS .The golden boy swung his stick 1st to boot and nothing wrong with him except he whines to refs steady

 

[Artemi Panarin]

bahahahahaha Marchand gets sucker lunched for a concussion by repeat offender and this.THE NHL CAN FK RIGHT OFF WITH ITS DUFFERENT RULES FOR DIFFERENT PLAYERS .The golden boy swing his stick 1st to boot.

I've seen this countless times in the other series post whistle but it's McJesus so they made the call

 

[LivingRentFree]

Bad look on the NHL again. Sick of them playing favourites. McDavid starts it with his best Mickey Mantle impersonation, and walks away a free man. Yikes

 

[ZJuice]

The only reason Soucy got his face is because Zadarov 3rd manned with a crosscheck to McDavid's lower back.
Should be a hearing for Zadarov, not Soucy..

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Sure, let it carry on... it's over to Kane... let's see if follows up his 'f*** around and find out' .. Zadorov f***ed around.. your move Kane.

Kane. Lol. Zadarov will send him into the stands next time.

 

[Canovin]

@0;10. it starts with Soucy crosschecking McDavid at his rib and then another crosscheck where McDavid was able to block it after the whisper when the game ended. McDavid retaliated with a swing. Soucy retaliated with the same swing, Zadorov crosscheck to the back of McDavid and Soucy crosscheck McDavid to the head.

Show me one 'way rougher' thing that has happened in this series.. Hughes walking into a stick popping a pimple ain't one.

This was AFTER the game to boot

Kane. Lol. Zadarov will send him into the stands next time.

Doesn't need to be a legal move against Zadorov or Hughes for that matter. Kane needs to respond.

 

[Czechboy]

I'm really on the wrong side of this one.. I didn't think anything would happen. If they suspend Soucy, does that mean more ice time for Cole and Myers?

I said "this playoffs". Nice lack of reading comprehension.

Bennett cold clocks Marchand and the league doesn't care. But McBaby starts a scrum? OH NO! Suspend everybody!!!!

Also if you want this series, one of the Oiler bums literally whacked Hoglander in the nuts as he's going to change. Way dirtier than anything McSoftie had to deal with. I guess you'd agree Soucy should've slashed McDavid in the balls? That's clean right?
