"See? Goaltending doesn't even matter" is probably Blake's takeaway here
Mcdavid gave a pretty good slash at the end on a Canuck, got slashed back , then got crosschecked from behind moments later. I'm sure all of Canada is crying suspension.Love how they went after Mcdavid. Kings gave him too much respect
The Canucks made a handful of low risk quality moves that really added depth to their roster:
Suter 2 x 1.6M
Cole 1 x 3M
Soucy 3 x 3.25M
Blueger 1 x 1.9M
Zadorov for 3rd Rnd Pick
Suter would've been a way better 3rd line center than PLD and cost nothing.

Nah. Cross-checking someone in the lower back from behind is a cowards move. Soucy is taking the blame, but Zadorov gave a chicken-shit shot to a guy who wasn't aware it was coming. He should be sitting for a few.im by no means rooting for the canucks but i love that by soucy and zadorov
mcdavid has gotten away with SO much on the kings with no pushback
dude wants to whack you at the end of the game? perfect. show him he's not untouchable.
This is how you show respect:Love how they went after Mcdavid. Kings gave him too much respect
and that was a baseball swing from mcdavidNah. Cross-checking someone in the lower back from behind is a cowards move. Soucy is taking the blame, but Zadorov gave a chicken-shit shot to a guy who wasn't aware it was coming. He should be sitting for a few.
Really? There was nothing suspension worthy on this play. If the Zadorov cross check is one, then so is McDavid's swing.Nah. Cross-checking someone in the lower back from behind is a cowards move.

Hysterical. Ok then. Cross-checking someone from behind in the lower back is identical and as dangerous to you as giving someone a shot in the hockey pants. Got it. I'm not even going to debate that nonsense.Really? There was nothing suspension worthy on this play. If the Zadorov cross check is one, then so is McDavid's swing.
At most, this is a fine to Soucy who would not have hit McDavid where he did if McDavid wasn't falling (some would argue selling).
I should have never even brought it up to someone calling for a multiple game playoff suspension on a nothing cross check.Hysterical. Ok then.

Soucy should have taken a swing at him. Ragdoll him. I don't have an issue with what he did. He was going to give him a shot in the chest and I'm all for it. Go for it. Zadorov is the issue here. I'm not sure where you're thinking I said anything about Soucy. In fact, I said the opposite.Bullshit.
If you're going to enter the scrum with a baseball swing when time's up, you get what's coming to you and you'd better be ready. Maybe he believes he's untouchable because of his abilities; he just found out he's wrong. Especially going after Soucy--what did he think was going to happen, ref would rescue him? This didn't happen out of nowhere, Soucy is edgy but a pretty honest player.
I don't like Zadorov coming in from behind but you have to expect that reaction, you just invited a melee.
There’s no debate here. McDavid has been predatory and has gotten away with it because the Kings have no men on the team. If McDavid wants to play like that and build that kind of a reputation then swings at Soucy, he has it coming. All of it is above the belt for me.
Smythe you are being obtuse because you don’t even consider the fact that Kane has been running players. That’s why Zadorov has been going after him.
It’s all fair game. Proportionality.
Hitting someone from behind is never ok. It's cowardly. I don't give a shit how cheap someone is playing. If you sucker-punch them, you're a coward. Was the punch that Bertuzzi gave Moore from behind right? I mean "he had it coming" didn't he?There’s no debate here.

I think the biggest reason Bertuzzi doesn't apply here is it was strict headhunting days later.Hitting someone from behind is never ok. It's cowardly.

Come on. If McDavid did what Zadorov did y'all would be calling for his head and talking about what a POS he is.
