Honestly from this angle it looks like McNabb just nudged Kopitar straight in the chest. Kopitar kinda snaps back cause he didn't expect the shove.

These type of hits happen all game though, Heck Lewis cross checked a Vegas player in the head tonight didn't get called for it.

Its plays like this that make me judge the integrity of NHL reffing. The ref is looking directly at it, no excuse for not calling it. If Doughty gets one game for his, this needs to be at least 2 as this is not a hockey play and its clearly intent to injure.
Are you serious abouth that? Or just bitter about being down two games?

It was a missed call, agree with it. Two minutes and that's it. A 2 game suspension? No way

Id agree with you up until the NHL decided to suspend Doughty for something no where near as egregious. Doughtys was a hockey play that brushed off the players shoulder and then made contact with the head . McNabb targeted the head and made contact with an elbow. If Parros wants to be consistent as he said he did, then McNabb should be suspended as well.

Can agree with you on Doughty but I still think McNabb just wanted to block the Kings player. Having watched the video several times now I am still not sure if the elbow hit the Kings player at all (more the upper arm to me) . Still only 2 minutes for me and no suspension
