I mean there were 3-4 penalties on the play. Garland obviously was holding McDavid and interference as well. McDavid could have had a penalty for roughing and obviously the cross checking on the play. It was strange that neither of the referees arms went up before the situation was out of control.
Garland is a player who is only in the league if he plays like that though. He is a very undersized player who is chippy and is able to get under the skin of the opposition. If he didn't play like that he would be a career AHL all star or doing the European circuit.
