DoPS video narrator breaks down the Soucy suspension and states “This is cross-checking” as Hyman cross-checks Zadorov in the face (at 0:47). Some 4D irony right there.
Literally saying āthis is cross checkingā as Hyman is mid cross check. Unbelievable
RezChi
There is so many issues with the explanation. Literally sounds like they’ve already made the decision to suspend him and then went to try and make up bs excuses on why.
Says the crosscheck is way after the game, how about the slash that McDavid did? That shit was way after the game.
Unacceptably high level? If McDavid didn’t fold like a lawn chair it would have hit him in the chest like most crosschecks.
The crosscheck from Hyman, now that is true unacceptably high level

This is too funny

My favorite part is they say they accept Soucys explanation that Z cross check changed mcdavids position which is why he got the head.
Like they talked off the suspension then handed it out anyways
Plane-Buyer
I think BASEketball had better officiating/clearer rules

Now the rest of the league gets to enjoy what Calgary has lived with since that fateful draft day.

“Soucy chooses to raise his stick to an unacceptably high level”
Meanwhile, Hyman’s hands are above his shoulders.
mmios
Game management is dumb enough, now we have SERIES MANAGEMENT.

Off topic but silovs save after the game ended was ohtstanding

I’m not even mad because of how legitimately funny this is

the nhl is a clown league.

Worst officiating, worst adjudicating, and worst sports league for accountability. NHL are an embarrassment.

Hopefully the team makes peace with this because it turns out weāre the ābig bad bulliesā this time and there was a time we prayed for this. All the pressure is on the Soilers now to respond after this handout by the league.
Rand_University81
This league is a complete joke.
Eldvedr
oh boy lads get out your white towels the league is trying to screw us over again.
Unhittable
Raises his stick to an unacceptable level, and delivers a high 2 hand cross check….as the oilers player does exactly as he describes busting open Zadarov. Fuckin joke. DoPS…Department of Pussy Shit.
True_Ad_5369
Its crazy how incompetent DOPS can be. I guess thats what you get when you have meathead goons heading the department.
SMA2343
Itās only because itās McDavid
Admirable-Ad-949
Sucks that Soucy got suspended and Hyman didn’t however it is great to be the bullies instead of the bullied for a change. Love seeing our guys beating the crap out of everyone!
novanuck
Since Tocchet brought up the Hyman cross-check is there a chance that the league revisits it or did they get away with another cheap shot?
montyhil
Soucy was banged up last game anyways. One day off might be good for him. If Juulsen cannot play up to expectation, then roll with 5 defensemen or play him in sheltered minutes.
Loud_Examination_138
It’s hard to think this isn’t the league favoring the oilers. How do you ignore hyman in the same video for what they are suspending Soucy for?
UraSnotball_
DOPS must think weāre all the stupidest motherfuckers on the planet with how blatant this bs is.
Alien_Diceroller
Man, I hope they lay the lot of them out next game. Every single one of those whiners stuffed into their bench. The rare time the ‘depth’ players are actually on the ice, that is.
infinitez_
I’ve been very mad about this outcome all day. I hope the team comes out furious tomorrow (while doing it cleanly) because they have probably had enough of this bs, like us.
davitch84
Any chance someone has a clip of McDavid burying Garland with a crosscheck in the back right at the start of the game?
It was against the boards immediately after Ekholm got blown up by Joshua…
Would be interesting to compare that with Zadorovs.

The amount of NHL media people that instantly called for a Soucy suspension yesterday on TSN, TNT and Sportsnet while saying nothing about Hyman is a fucking joke.

Fuck it, let it go boys, focus up here for the next one āļø

I’m not even mad TBH. 100% knew this was what we were in for playing McDavid and the Oilers. The fact that they’ve dropped 2/3 and are clearly starting to sweat in a series that was supposed to be “light work” (according to all the McDavid nut huggers in the media) is amazing. This happening in spite of our Vezina candidate #1 goalie being out and the league having a clear and obvious pro-McDavid bias that even neutral fans are recognizing and calling out just makes it even more sweet. Next man up, go Canucks go.

I want to work for the DoPS.
No accountability, only need to look at plays once in a while (not even that carefully) then if anyone touches mcdavid, just suspend him.
