I hate to hear Gaudreau was injured from a slash. I know it’s just precautionary so I hope everything is ok.

But in a preseason game that means nothing and the oilers choose to slash our star player to that level… why not return the favour? Forget anything else for the rest of the game. The sole purpose of every flame could just be to hack away at McDavid until he has to leave the game for the same reason. Two men on him at all times slashing at him viciously. The team was winning at that point anyways and you could gain far more from sending a message back than trying to win a meaningless game.

I know it’s not practical and you never see anything like that. I’m just frustrated. Always feels like every time Johnny is on a role… teams start hacking and hacking. Refs will call at best 1 out of every 20 slashes on him. With those odds… it’s worth the risk for teams to do that to him.
