Was a bit high and McCann's reaction made it look worse than it was. MAX 2 minute penalty and even that's going too far imo. I'm a diehard Canucks fan btw..
How the fuck is this a game misconduct? I'm really tired of this shit. The league is trying to get rid of any toughness. Fighting will be gone in few years and seems like they are trying to make hitting illegal as well.
What do they mean by late? He got hit at the left side of the Bud Light ad, and the puck had only travelled as far as the right side…. Couldn't have been more than a quarter second. And you can see really clearly just as the commentator says "shoulder and elbow" that there was no elbow.
Nah. Great hit. He kept his arms and elbow down, and didn't leave his skates. The other guy was just smaller than him. Nothing you can do about that except to eat your fruits and veggies to get taller haha.
Penguins fan here…puck was still on his stick, shoulder to shoulder hit, head was contacted because head was down, CLEAN HIT. The pussification of the NHL slowly continues.

It was late, and it was a hit to the head. Larsson deserves a two-game suspension.
John Garrett is literally cancer.
No hit league
That was a good hit.
Clean.
Late??? He had possession…Shoulder to shoulder, clean hit.
Nothing wrong there. No head contact whatsoever. BS call.
Clean hit
Adam Larsson is such a dirty player.
Such garbage for going after a 19 year old like that.
That speaks for itself

Lol that's a clean hit
He clearly gets him in the head, but not intentionally. So I think the penalty is ok, but it shouldn't be a suspension.

Tha Canucks' commentators are idiots.
First it wasnt late second it wasn't to the head third these announcers need to find a new profession.
Clean

He got a 5 minute major for that?

Canuck fan and I gotta say that was clean
That is a clean hit. Wasn't late and he didn't bring his elbow up.
great hit
Looked clean, McCann had a bit of a stumble in the on ice footage at the end which changed the timing.
That wasn't late at all lol. Now they're teammates in seattle
It's funny that McCann says he agrees this hit was clean, he was just young and shellshocked.
Cool that they're teammates now with Seattle 😀
