The fact that this never happens and it happened to Subban of all players kind of falls into the hands of the conspiracy theorists that think there is prejudice against him. This isn't my opinion of course but it certainly fuels that fire.

Good hits vs. bad hits are at least split second / matter of inches kind of things. That slash was just stupid.
McSorley on Brashear wasn't a terribly hard slash either...
