But this story is not about McDavid, it's about his coach's response to a question from a reporter: "Asked if he would have a word with his player when he returns, coach Knoblauch smiled wryly and said: "He knows how disappointing it can be [to get injured in a fight]. I don't think anyone will have to say anything to him."
I don't think anyone will have to say anything to him. In other words, the consequences of his actions are already big enough. Nobody needs to rub his nose in it.
