Lot of incidental contact there. Def blame on both sides

$5000 fine at most

Refs should feel the heat for all this. Call the rules as they are and this circus doesn’t happen

Bouchard sucks at playing D and he sucks at embellishing. Myers barely touched him.

 

[Senor Catface]

Unacceptable in today's game. 10 games.

 

[canadianmagpie]

Should get whatever McDavid gets

I agree, suspend him for the rest of his contract.

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

They should suspend McDavid and Myers. That'd be amazing for the Canucks.

 

[Divine]

Likely gets suspended similar to McDavid. It actually might work in the Canucks favour because to let McDavid go they have to let Myers go.. which they won't.

Both players are suspended right now due to the match penalty, pending review.

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

...so Myers being Myers??...OK...

 

[Lawzy]

This one is also a suspension.

 

[eojsmada]

Any video?

 

[GhostfaceWu]

Mcdavid should be getting a bonus for putting the spotlight on how bad those two are at reffing.

 

[M2Beezy]

Any video?

No

It's Myers. No one cares. He'll get his suspension. Are you actually upset and surprised that more people are talking about McDavid than Myers?

 

[Frank the Tank]

This one was predatory by Myers. There's no defense that it was done in the heat of the moment. Tack at least one game onto whatever you give McDavid.

 

[Nogatco Rd]

That was pretty bad. When do these two teams play again? Myers gonna have to answer for that one for sure

I think for some (at least myself as someone with no skin in this game) it’s a bit ridiculous that this one didn’t get at least a little more attention than it had, given it was seemingly unprovoked or at least more predatory rather than reactionary.

Connor deserves a suspension (and I suspect he will get one) but his was in reaction to Garland keeping him down and interfering with his ability to get up. Not an excuse, hence the suspension…but I understand why some feel one that actually should get more games is seemingly being ignored for the other due to who’s involved.

I get it though…that’s how this shit goes when the best player in the league is involved.

Yeah and it’s not like he can say he was getting ready to defend himself bc that’s not Bouchard’s game

2 games

Live look inside Chaos Giraffes head.

2 games

i think both get 2 games so they sit out the rematch.

Bouchard bringing his hands up like he is going to hit Myers. Myers protecting himself. McDavid crosscheck was worse in a sense, because Garland wasn't even looking at McDavid when he hit him.
