Connor MaDavid Out Five To Six Weeks

Connor McDavid was involved in a fight Tuesday night against Mississauga's player  Bryson Cianfrone. During the fight Connor went to through a punch at Bryson and missed and hit the top of the bored.    The fractured bone extends from the base of the pinkie finger to the wrist and he will not have to have any surgery to fix it. The 17 year old McDavid went to see a specialist after Tuesday nights game. McDavid being out sets him back to December 24th and he will almost certainly miss the Canadian World Juniors with there first game to be played on December 26th against Slovakia.

With the 17 year old hockey star being so young and already being into fights everyone is going to want to draft him on there team because they want men who can fight like McDavid showed people he can do in Tuesday nights game. Although the NHL is slowly trying to dismiss fighting from the league people are still going to fight its what the crowd likes and they have to every so often to show teams that they are not just a weak team that can score goals and do everything that they get paid to do but you also need to show them that you can defend your team.

I personally think now with all that great plays McDavid has played he will personally have no problem getting into the NHL and now managers and teams will be looking over him when he gets back into the game. As of right now it looks like he will be missing the world juniors but the team hopes that it will heal and he can get the okay from the specialist and be allowed to played and show his true hockey skills to all the NHL team mangers that will be there looking and watching over people that they can draft into the NHL and onto there team. I personally think the NHL should not get rid of fighting because there will always be the two people that want to fight and need to defend themselves and there team but maybe they need to give out bigger penalties to the people who do fight instead of just a five minute major penalty. NHL should be giving out game suspensions and fines and that will maybe stop fighting a little bit but there will still be the odd fight in the NHL and still keep the fans and sport interesting.

Some Boston fans tweeted in the shock that other Boston fans would make such Racist comment one tweeted "N----r was trending in Boston because P.K. Subban scored… It’s a rare moment in my life to be ashamed to be a Bruins fan"  another tweeted  "I bet the Bruins fans calling P.K. Subban a n----r on Twitter have no idea his brother plays for their minor league team." P.K's brother Malcolm was drafted to the Boston's Minor league team in 2012 Bruins fans also don't realize that an awesome right winger on there team Jarome Iginla has some of the seem tweets and can not believe his team mates would do this to him and other NHL players.

Pittsburgh Steelers Ben Roethlisberger is the man no one can touch right now. After Sundays game against the ravens Big Ben throw 6 touchdown's and over 340 yards to set an NFL record for touchdown passes in consecutive games in a 43-23 victory over the ravens on Sundays night game. after throwing 12 touchdowns in the past 2 games broke Tom Flores record of 11 in two games.
