Myers spearing on McDavid – Tough Call Recommendation



Tyler Myers drove his stick forcefully up into the groin of Connor McDavid. There was no call at all.

  1. It's not typically described as a downward chop. It literally just says "swinging" or "forceful chop," and you can both swing and chop upwards. Nowhere does it state it as a (downward motion,) in fact most slashes aren't even downwards and are sideways.

  2. I have absolutely zero faith in the DOPS. They almost always get it wrong. Especially when it’s an infraction against a star player

  3. I see our criminal justice system has made it's way into hockey.
    Plus the media calling it "appeared" to put his stick into his groin.
    Get some balls NHL before someone loses theirs.
    No comment on the media, they lost me many years ago. I know what I, and everyone saw.

  4. Myers needs to be severely punished on the ice for this. This is totally dirty and unnecessary and the $2500 fine is a joke. Hopefully somebody on the Oilers will take Myers out because he deserves it.

  5. Remember everybody here whining. The NHLPA also votes on the suspension and fine criteria and amounts. Want to complain. Call you players as well.

  6. The craziest part is that Mcdavid was suspended for retaliating against Van last year. So what this tells Mcdavid is that not only can he not protect himself the NHL won't either. Anyone who claims the league over protects him is an idiot. Even Crosby defended Mcdavid after his suspension.

  7. whoa 7 is a lot. i think McDavid deserves to be speared constantly for signing for less money. he's basically cheating by not agreeing to the same presumed greed of everyone else. if the best 22 players in the league all signed to one team for $1 each, the league would find a way to put a stop to it. cheater! spear them nuts!!! 😛

  8. Crap call by the refs and NHL. It should have been 7 games. Scrub player attacks the best player in the league. Do you think the NHLPA has a bounty on McDavid? Just asking.

  9. And just how many times did McDavid get fined or even penalized, lol, for slashing someones eyes last year? None! Gouging at someones eyes is McDavids go to so, this should set a precedent on how one deals with McDavid. He should clean up his game.

  10. i can't count on all fingers and toes how many dirty plays mc muffin has gotten away with over the years. where's your videos on those?
