Vancouver Canucks defenseman Carson Soucy is facing a suspension from NHL Player Safety for intentionally crosschecking Edmonton Oilers superstar Connor McDavid in the face.

Last night during the Canucks and Oilers game, defenseman Carson Soucy delivered a questionable hit on Connor McDavid, sparking controversy. McDavid faced two rough hits during a post-game scuffle, one of which was from Soucy.

NHL insider Elliotte Friedman has confirmed that Soucy will have a hearing with the Department of Player Safety regarding the incident. The debate centers on whether a suspension is necessary. The hit wasn't clean, and its unnecessary and dangerous nature raises concerns.

Sounds like there will be a hearing for Carson Soucy out of the end-of-game scrum in Edmonton last night

The type of hearing, whether in person or via phone, could impact the potential suspension length. While a significant suspension would typically be warranted, being in the Stanley Cup Playoffs might lead to a shorter punishment, possibly a game or two.

Do you think Soucy deserves to be suspended?
