Neither those hits were even a penalty. I’d say they were pretty equal in terms of viscousness but doughtys hit resulted in injury.
Flames fans here are more upset about it then knights fans. But that video doesn’t jive with the conspiracy that some fans here believe.

Kane approached that hit with intent to injure and Doughty clearly did not. If Doughty would have approached his hit on McDavid with the same intent Kane did on Pietrangelo then it’s an auto suspension, no question.
Cale Makar’s hit on McCann in round 1 was way less severe than the regular season hit McDavid did on Anderson, wasn’t even close. Makar gets suspended making it easier for the Kraken against an already depleted Avs lineup.
There should be no BS from anyone that there is no clear favortism for McDavid or any other Oiler.
