No it sure wouldn't be but you can't tell the good ones to not take chances. Not in their pedigree.

Instead, the NHL should wake up and protect their stars like basketball does. The rules are in place but they have to enforce them. McDavid could warrant a call against every second shift but the referees are CS. Its like they blame him for being so fast.
