How come we never hear about whining over MacKinnon not drawing enough penalties? Last I saw he was leading the league in scoring. Why is Canadian media always so fixated on how many penalties McDavid draws while never whining that the league should open up things for other elite players? The reason McDavid is drawing less penalties is probably because the officials have seen enough video over the last few years and have got a little tired of looking like fools falling for the embellishment. This was probably always going to come to a head eventually the way McDavid was going with the leg kicks and stuff.
