I think the Anderson one might have been, but only if there was a history of suspensions. It should have been a game misconduct though. They didn’t even call it a major so it wasn’t reviewable.
I’m a Kings fan, no love lost for McDavid, but I think that none of these quite rise to suspension-worthy. He can be a dirty little shit sometimes though.

Only the third one imo

Kotkienemi was such blanton bs. Leddy too. Both should’ve been susoendable, but the other ones should’ve been 5 minute Majors imo

just kind of throws an elbow. lol

With Parros in charge you’re better off blindly throwing a dart at a dart board.

I hate nhl referees.

Those first two hits happen 12-15 times a game.
If those were suspensions, no teams would have defencemen to play on any given night.

As good of a stick handler as mcdavid is physicality can beat him.

Oh boy I’m never gonna get tired of these shitty compilations of (insert player here) making “dirty” plays.

Maybe the 3rd agreed… MEBE…
The first two shouldn’t be for anyone. They are both good instances of a player not defending themselves for a split second at the wrong moment. None of those are huge momentum checks.

Mcdavid spends all his time watching out for the hit. Doesn’t actually know *how* to hit.

Depends what the wheel spins that day really. Could be get out of jail free card, could be fine the player, could be a 10 game suspension, could be buy parrors a case of beer and he takes your wife out for a date. Who knows

That last one was just dirty.

Several of them should have resulted in a suspension.

Refs let him take a beating nightly…he should be allowed to give it back.

Notice no one went after him after any of these hits? 🤦🏼♂️

You have to remember mcdavid is so fast and shifty. That he draws alot of penalties, however the oilers historical powerplay leaves the refs not calling alot of the stuff he goes against.
To sumerize, you are stating mcdavid gets away with stuff becuase who he is. And I would counter that he does not get enough calls

He and Stamkos get a free pass somehow.

The third one is the only one that reaaaaally bothered me, and I’m pretty sure he got a suspension for it, no?

The only I’d maybe suspend for is the hit on Leddy. Everything else is fine at a minor as far as I’m concerned.
