Parros must not have been impressed with his dead eyed monotone mumbling in the hearing. 3 games is the correct amount of games for that little McTanty.

That Tom Wilson and Trouba has gotten away with murder before several times does not mean it was wrong to suspend McDavid. Only that it was wrong to not punish Wilson and Trouba! McDavid also has been allowed to get away with at least 3 clear cut suspendable acts before, so he is not the right person to bring up either!
So he gets paid so people can watch him get tackled? He deserved a suspension but staying with the Soucy or Matthews suspensions, NHL has proven their inconsistencies and biases
Right and Meyers history is twice as bad

the point being is they're not consistent...a player trying to hit a homer with another guys head? just a fine
crosscheck to the face? 3 games for Connor, only 2 for Matthews

Totally agree. And as you can see from the text under my profile pic I am not a fan of DOPS. The baseball swing in the head should have been 10+games and so should Wilson pounding on a NYR players head facing the ice while another Cap held down his feet so he was unable to move or defend himself - that was assault and not a hockey play by any means.
But the DOPS suspending people for dangerous plays is actually an improvement, even if they did let other worse acts in the past let go without suspension!

/although I will admit that Parros has gotten a little more consistent over the past couple of years. Still a looooonnnnggg way to go, but he has been slightly better

I said it would be between 2 and 3 games. Mildly surprised the NHL gave him 3. But it was the right call.
Over simplifying the situation there. POS Garland was interfering with him by acting like a child hugging a teddy bear. He even said he did it intentionally to keep him out of the play for the seconds of the game. It was a cheap move and it showed the NHL ref being a joke for not giving either a roughing call or interference call to Garland. It was cheap play

Surprised he got 3, figured they'd either give him 1 or a fine. You can say they are trying to send a message, but we all know they just spin a wheel and then use the magic 8 ball to hand out suspensions. There's absolutely no consistency, someone can swing a stick and hit someone in the head and it could be anything between a max fine and 5 games.

McJesus should make it clear to the NHL, behind closed doors, that the best player in their sport isn’t going to take this shit anymore and is going to crosscheck guys in the face if they want to f*** with him without the referee stepping in.
If the league is fine with fans paying $250 a game to watch him eat nachos in the press box, that’s their choice. Good luck growing the game.

Is this his first suspension? Seems overkill for what looked mostly like a gloved punch.
I feel like this is definitely getting appealed?

The bolded shows that you have an understanding of the how and why, but to say that prior history isn't factored in is foolhardy.

2nd suspension, he got 2 games back in 2019. I think both he and Myers are not considered repeat offenders because of the time between.

I would've liked to see something between 5-10 games each but this is still good.
McDavid especially needs to control himself. He's the best player in the world and young kids look up to him, he's not just a hockey player he's a role model - probably the most important one right now - who needs to set a good example for the youth to follow. With great power comes great responsibility, sorry, I know it's hard, but he needs to be held to a higher standard.
P.S. I love how passionate these two teams get when they face each other, what a great rivalry. Emotional hockey is the best to watch.

The way garland manhandled and dumped him against his will my money's on Garland in any fair fight
There's a reason McDavid used his stick. He can't fight.
