McDavid scared to drop the gloves with Yanni Gourde so instead Gourde takes a run at Elkholm. This is what happens when McDavid tries to agitate other players all game and isn’t willing to answer for his actions. McDavid with a slashing and roughing penalty prior to this pic.twitter.com/664fbDNnl6

Cmd high sticked him... Why should he have to drop the gloves after that? Does not look intentional. If gourde was mad he should have taken it out on the ref for missing the call. It's a puck battle and he's bent down though, it's a vulnerable spot he was in.
Two games for Gourde.
Here is the video explanation.
NEW YORK (Jan. 19, 2024) Seattle Kraken forward Yanni Gourde has been suspended for two games, without pay, for charging Edmonton Oilers defenseman Mattias Ekholm during NHL Game No. 698 in Edmonton on Thursday, Jan. 18, the National Hockey Leagues Department of Player Safety announced today.
The incident occurred at 16:23 of the third period. Gourde was assessed a major penalty for charging.
Under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement and, based on his average annual salary, Gourde will forfeit $53,819.44. The money goes to the Players Emergency Assistance Fund.
