The end of the Oilers’ 3-2 loss to the Canucks was absolute mayhem! Connor McDavid made headlines with a cross-check to Conor Garland’s face in the dying moments, sparking a brawl that saw every player on the ice receive a penalty. Meanwhile, Tyler Myers added to the chaos with a dangerous cross-check to Evan Bouchard’s face, earning himself a major penalty.
Now the big question: should McDavid and Myers both face suspensions for their actions? Was this just playoff-style intensity gone too far, or do the NHL’s Department of Player Safety need to step in?
Join us on Oilersnation After Dark as we dive into the heated finish, analyze the penalties, and discuss what this means for the Oilers and Canucks moving forward. Let us know in the comments: do you think McDavid and Myers deserve suspensions?

Thank you guys. The people that blame the Goalie probably do not know how to play the Sport of hockey. Do they call a Goal a home run or a touchdown Lol
When Connor hurt his ankle and couldn’t play that’s when we started winning this season after our Stanley Cup Slump. Let Connor get suspended only if the Canuck does too
Games like that shows how much the miss a player like Kane…….Garland is a total Prick….The Oil are way to soft. It's truly sad when McDavid and Draisaitl are not the only real goal scorers and the only players with any grit!
Myers is suspension worthy but i would be all for a 5-10k financial slap on the wrist for mcdavid but no suspension because that play never happens if the refs pull their whistle from where the sun dont shine and blow the play dead after the connor garland hold/tackle/interference
Yes, no one is above the rules
Oilers fan for life….but that's a suspension….and Myers should be suspended as well. I understand McDavid's frustration…. but based on the clip you showed, he was tackling Garland before Garland tackled him…I didn't notice if there was back and forth between Garland and McDavid throughout the game. Maybe next time just drop the gloves instead. One – I think McDavid could have held his own against Garland; and Two – the Oilers need to be tougher. You don't necessarily want your superstar fighting, but that would have sent a message to the rest of his team – Step up lads.
How about firing McCauley! Disgusting!
This was exactly like Pietrangelo slashing Leon after many non-calls. Funny how McDavid clutched his pearls about that when he does this
Yes of course.
10 game suspension, McCrybaby needs to learn a lesson.
Im pretty sure when mcdavid was laying on him, garland was actually holding hisarm down
He needs to get 1 game. Myers needs 2
Suspensions for mcdavid and myers both for sure , 2 games
McDavid is soft and dirty
