That wasn’t even that bad . Why isn’t anyone talking about the flagrant hit that lead to the death of Adam Johnson? Way more important as far as I’m concerned
Charlie Brown doing what he does best – dirty hits.
Dude gets only 4 for an intentional head hit while some other dude gets half a season for gambling…
Clearly targeted head. Mcavoy gets guy in his sights. Raises shoulder to level of head. Unfortunate only 4 days suspension is acceptable.
He got off easy. This has to be a perfect example of the infraction. No one should get more than 4 games from now on.
It's because its a first time offense that the punishment isn't as severe
I'm at a loss as to his intention. He scores the tying goal, there was no reason to avenge anyone. What gives? So now he incurs a suspension while hurting his team and becomes the hunted one.
Should have been more than 4. This isn't the first time he's done this
