I don't believe that. There's plenty of evidence over the last couple years too:
Where was the outrage last month when Marc Stahl speared Ovechkin in the groin away from the play?

Or when Crosby speared Dominic Moore in the groin after the whistle?

Or when Marchand speared PK Subban in the groin away from the play?

Or when Markov speared Chara in the groin away from the play?

Or when Lucic speared Dekeyser in the groin?

Or when Lucic speared Emelin in the groin on two separate occasions?

Or when there was no outrage when Prust played for Montreal and speared Ben Bishop in the groin?

Edit: in fact, just last night Doughty spears JT Brown in the nuts and no one has even brought it up. Announcers thought it was funny:
