Here's the full context for that bit of awesomeness.

Quote:
“I’ve been thinking for a couple of days,” started Zadorov about his fine and the suspension of teammate Carson Soucy. “Unfortunately, that’s the world we’re living in. Sometimes social media and the public views can create some hard decisions for specific people and they might make questionable decisions at the end of the day. That’s how I look at it.”

“I had no intention to hurt anybody. I saw my teammate get slashed, I had to step in. I’ve been doing it for 11 years,” continued Zadorov. “It’s just an unlucky play, I got cut there too. Whatever, move on, Game 4 today, let it be.”

The two Canucks involved in the scrum both received supplemental discipline, but none of the Oilers stars, Zach Hyman or Connor McDavid, were fined or suspended.

“At the end of the day, they have to protect their investment, so that’s my understanding in this situation,” continued the Canucks defenceman, throwing a shot at some potential favouritism for McDavid, the face of the league.

Zadorov had stitches around his eye as a result of a cross-check from Hyman in the scrum. When asked why the league doesn’t protect him as he suggested they did McDavid, he was quick to respond.

“I guess I don’t make that much money for the league, I don’t know,” he said before changing his tone. “I mean it’s a hockey play, there’s a lot of sticks, it’s hard to see.”
