Connor McDavid is the fastest skater in the NHL.
He plays at very high speed, often with players draped all around him.
Every other team in the league tries to hit on him, waterski on him, hook, and do whatever every night.
The NHL has put out the following video explaining why McDavid has received a
two game suspension.
When I watched the game live I was surprised that the refs even gave him a penalty as I've seen much worse hits over the year.
Of course McDavid's Edmonton Oilers are out of the playoff race already so perhaps it doesn't matter.
I feel that the fans are getting robbed of watching one of the greatest players in Hockey for the next two games.
Naturally the NHL is justifying the suspension in the video below.
