Mcdavid 5min Match Penalty: Cross check to the face of Garland (Suspended 3 games )

[Devilmademedoit]

Deserved. Gotta control your stick.

he controlled his stick. He was sending a message about cheap plays

 

[swiftwin]

Good amount

 

[PuckFather]

The One Who Fell at the Battle of Two Connors. Sounds like a movie title, but seriously 1 or 2 games would have been sufficient. 3 is a bit too harsh.

McDavid should learn that it’s a rats league. Be a dirty rat and you are free and clear and are actually able to draw penalties. Don’t cross check, just hold guys down on the ice, or do shit away from the play.

Yea he should do what Bouchard did like 30 seconds earlier. Guys gotta learn man .

McDavid failed the "Don't crosscheck" part

 

[CycloneSweep]

He has been low key dirty for awhile.

Most stars are and have been pushed this way. Enforcers don’t exist, refs don’t call penalties they just game manage. Stars get sacked slashed, interefered, held all game and nothing. Frustrations boil over and this happens.
I’m not even just talking McDavid, all the stars see this.

 

[Voight]

While the NFL does everything in their power to help Mahomes, its refreshing to see the NHL punish McDavid.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

McDavid can go get some rest now.

Myers can go practise at the golf range for April.

Joke league

 

[bringbacktheskate604]

...because Myers has multiple suspensions for this dirty BS already...his should be 5...

Myers has one suspension ffs.
Half the penalties he gets are for being too tall

 

[CycloneSweep]

Or Garland. Just hold guys down on the ice for 15 seconds and pretend you aren’t. Gotta trick the refs.

 

[nucks88]

Lol what? Wasn't Myers last suspension like 11 years ago?

Yup lol……

The league really can't ignore blatant cross-checks to the head, regardless of who did it.

I'm not saying they haven't before, just that they can't. So this is the right call.

 

[gary559]

I think this is a little harsh, 1-2 would have been enough.

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

He has been suspended once in his career, 13 years ago.

...twice...and fined twice...

Worse have gotten 1 games and fines. It’s crazy how inconsistent they are.

Thats what I thought too, but the DPoS video says twice before? So not sure when the 2nd time was.

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Seems right. Matthews got two for a less egregious crosscheck to Dahlin and McDavid has a previous suspension. Three is about right.

Cross checking a guy in the face is kind of a dirty rat thing to do.

[phrenssoa]

3 games is a little crazy. But as an Oilers fan I’m not overly concerned. Watch Draisaitl step up in McDavid’s absence like he always does.

Dirty yes, not a rat thing. The rats hide it from the refs and don’t get caught.

 

[Leonardo87]

Mods good luck with this thread.

He was fined I think?

 

[Bizzare]

Over a decade ago…

 

[BallardEra]

I expected 2.

Guess Parros disagreed with me.
