Video of Kane and Crosby circulates the internet and it's embarrassing for the NHL

See here the full explanation from the league:

So Kane missed his team's final playoff game, and on the Avalanche side, Nazem Kadri had surgery on his thumb.

Why are we talking about this today?

Because the league is accused, by many and for a long time, of being completely inconsistent in its decisions in the department of player safety.

Some people almost believe that suspensions are handed out randomly, on merit, and that it is unfortunately becoming almost random.

VIDEO SURFACES

As spotted by my colleague Keven Mawn (Fanadiens.com), there's a video that's circulating a lot right now that many feel is embarrassing for the NHL.

Why?

It shows two clips, simultaneously, of Sidney Crosby and Evander Kane doing the same thing, during the same playoffs.

One was suspended and the other got absolutely nothing.

This brings back the debate of inconsistency and lack of logic in the suspensions handed out by the National Hockey League.

It's a lot of talk and the Bettman circuit doesn't look good. The video has literally gone viral.

Here it is right here:

You be the judge, but many are denouncing a clear double standard.

It seems to prove that a person's reputation clearly weighs in the balance when it comes to suspending a player.
