NHL player safety committee hands out suspension involving Connor McDavid
This morning the NHL’s Department of Player Safety announced that Vancouver Canucks defensemen Carson Soucy would receive a hearing for his crosscheck on Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid.
McDavid received a crosscheck in the back, swiftly followed with a cross check to the face by Canucks defensemen Carson Soucy.
It all sparked when McDavid delivered a slash to Soucy after the final buzzer.
Zadorov has been fined $5,000 for his crosscheck, but what does Soucy now get?
The NHL Player and Safety committee announced the following:
Vancouver’s Carson Soucy has been suspended for one playoff game for cross-checking Edmonton’s Connor McDavid.
The Canucks have been trying their hardest to shutdown Connor McDavid and the Oilers red-hot offence, and it won’t be any easier with them being down a defensemen (Soucy) in game four on Tuesday night.
