WCSF: Vancouver Canucks [PAC1] vs Edmonton Oilers [PAC2] - Edmonton wins 4-3

[Dion]

What about McDavid???

[Blaster86]

Just so we are clear, Soucy's cross check saw no damage done.


Hyman's cross check saw Zadorov getting stitched up after the game.

Is there any potential that Hyman gets a suspension for this or is he protected because he wrote a children's book.

^ Nope, thats it for supplemental discipline.

Is it not about intent? Curious how the NHL views McDavid slashing a player in this manner as a hockey play.

Not even a fine.

The league is currently preparing a preliminary adjustment to add this to next years skills competition, and McDavid's agent is currently negotiating his service fee for consultation.

Can you appeal in the playoffs !

I would, out of principle.

Biased league is biased. I've been enjoying watching this series with Canucks fans who are now realizing what it's like to be on the other end of the McDavid love-in.

[Roof-Daddy]

Vancouver fans finding out what it's like to play the NHL backed, McDip#### led, oilers in the playoffs.

Just wait until you score an important goal and have it waved off for a phantom kicking motion.

[Paulie Walnuts]

The one from Hyman looks like clear intent. Of course they wont suspend the "elite" goal scorer.

[CalgaryFan1988]

How hard is it to have a spreadsheet for suspensions and follow them all equally? No wonder people hate the NHL and it's "wheel of justice". It truly is a garage league at times and it's infuriating.

[dustygoon]

I know there are some on here that support a suspension for Soucy. There is a limit on how escalatory retaliation can be otherwise mayhem. It was nasty.

But how do they single out that Soucy crosscheck and then nothing for Hyman on Zadarov? Which was a cross check. To the head. That resulted in stitches. In the EXACT video DOPS released to support the Soucy suspension?

It's comical.

Zadorov is 6'7". You don't get the stick up into his face unless you're trying to.

Quoted because I can only thank this once.

Best moment ever. In my life. And I have two kids.

But at least they can. What can the pissy twins do? Play 40 minutes?

Who are the refs for game 4? There will be so much pressure for them to pepper the Oilers with powerplays (more than usual).

He also skates into the scrum with his stick ready to hit him.

What a joke this league is.

Watching the slowmo on repeat.

Out of thanks now. This one is even better. FAFO McDouchbag!!!

Stuff like this is far more likely to galvanize the Canucks than really help the Oilers.
