What could go wrong? How many BS penalty shots for McDavid this time?

Ahhh yes, reminds me of a game one of years past.
When Gaudreau breaking in got hacked and the puck went the other way to McDavid who was challenged by a flame without foul but was awarded a penalty shot, essentially for being defended.
How is it this game is so poorly and inconsistently called so consistently?
My investment today is dwarfed by how much I cared in the past. I'm desensitized to the BS that following this team has churned out.
Maybe one day that'll change. But not holding my breath.
I love these guys and my roots around this team go deep, but it is just hard to be too invested in a league that allows Edmonton to pick up 4 firsts in 6 years and doesn't do anything about it until well after the fact, and sits on its hands while Gaudreau's wrists get chopped on a nightly basis and does nothing about it.
Great team, but frankly a joke of a league.
