from Terry Jones of the Edmonton Sun,
In Los Angeles Saturday, Drew Doughty managed to get away with a Gordie Howe-calibre elbow to the jaw of McDavid. Doughty was shown laughing on the Kings bench and McDavid went back to the Oilers bench clearly suffering the effects of the elbow.
Many Oilers fans were more upset with the fact that Doughty escaped without a Milan Lucic or Zack Kassian choosing to take the law in their own hands and filling in Doughty for his transgression as would have happened in the days of Dave Semenko....
Sunday in Anaheim, the video of Anaheim Ducks’ Hampus Lindholm crosschecking McDavid in the back where ‘97’ and ‘McDavid’ are sewn on his uniform and sent head-first into the boards, went viral.
more with videos of both instances and others too and below, the Sunday play in question can be viewed...
added 5:02pm, below, Bob McKenzie on the topic too.
