In a new interview with the media, Connor McDavid gave his opinion on what he would like to see changed by officials after his recent suspension. Earlier this week, the <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl/news/connor-mcdavid-and-tyler-myers-both-receive-multi-game-suspensions-after-ejections-on-saturday' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>NHL Department of Player Safety suspended Connor McDavid for three games for a cross-check penalty.</a> The ejection and eventual suspension for McDavid came as a shock as many did not believe his actions warranted a three-game punishment. In the aftermath with fans and media outraged over McDavid's punishment, there were even reports that he would potentially <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/edmonton-oilers/connor-mcdavid-set-to-reportedly-protest-against-the-nhl-and-gary-bettman-after-being-suspended' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>boycott NHL media events as a protest against the treatment of NHL stars.</a> Ultimately, McDavid decided not to protest and did end up speaking to the media. He did, however, open up about his frustrations and what he wants to see changed with officials. <h3>Connor McDavid opens up about his frustrations with inconsistency from NHL referees</h3> In a new interview after practice, McDavid spoke to the media and was asked about his opinion on the state of officiating in today's NHL. McDavid began his response by admitting that referees have an incredibly hard job but then got into some critiques that he had of referees in general. McDavid's biggest complaint is that games in the middle of the season are called differently than games late in the season or in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. He even mentions how a penalty that is called in the first period might not be called late in the game due to the referees not wanting to influence the outcome. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/ginohard_/status/1882494210663956602'> </a></blockquote></div> Overall, McDavid just wants to see consistency from the referees in what they call, when they call it, and even who gets calls. A player of McDavid's stardom should not get more or less calls than one of his teammates but in today's NHL that is often the case. While a referee will not be perfect it seems perfectly fair for NHL players and coaches to want the rules to be consistent. As the season continues on we will now have to wait and see if Gary Bettman or the Department of Player Safety have anything to say about these suggestions from McDavid.
