This one, which wasn't violent but likely would've been considered assault anywhere other than on a rink or a sports field, they probably got right. Quote

The issue goes beyond being an assault, which it is in a legal sense. It's simply a dishonorable act that discredits the sport tarnishes the player. A three game suspension seems about right. Although I would have added one more game to what was meted out. This was simply an indescribably ugly act. 1 1 Quote
Getpucksdeep Posted March 2, 2023 Report Posted March 2, 2023 Leafs v Oilers is delicious. McDavid with 3 points in 1st. Looking forward to Monday. Also not looking forward to Monday. Hopefully Dahlin is back. And maybe Cozens gets fired up but after the schedule this week, woof. Quote

Except he'd spend more time on LTIR after some of the hits and cheap shots Gretzky had to try to avoid. You can never compare players from one era to another. Too many things change. McDavid would have been hooked, held, slashed and generally abused far more than he is in today's game. Draisaitl would probably have held up better. 1 Quote
sabrefanday1 Posted March 2, 2023 Report Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) Laughs new additions looked great tonight versus McNugget and gang...I do ponder how things would have turned out if Sabres would have got McDavid??? Funny to think he has so little success with Oilers (team success not individual). He,like many teams and players, are getting older and need to do something soon. This years playoffs should be interesting with so may teams making so many changes at this deadline... Edited March 2, 2023 by sabrefanday1 Quote

Could you imagine how humongous his profile would be if he played in Toronto, NY or Boston? I'm not sure he would find that aspect of the profession appealing. He seems like a low-key person who just wants to play. Quote
