I called this a couple of games ago. Only way Marchand is getting a penalty is if they call embellishment too.

Tampa is a very good team that doesn't need any additional advantages Refs, stay out of the game.

I purposely am not watching this game because of the bullshit that was the officiating Friday night.

Logged on here to see how the Bruins are doing against the referees (uhm, TB).

Seems like I made a good decision

Is that call common to be gin with? And I don't see how it's a penalty to take yourself out of the play by sitting there?

I mean, THEY CALLED A PENALTY ON HEDMAN, HOW CAN IT BE UNSPORSTMANLIKE CONDUCT TO BE AFFECTED BY THE PENALTY.
I'm monumentally confused; how can you call a penalty on Tampa and then call a penalty for unsportsmanlike; it's one or the other, how can it be both?

That's nuts; try explaining that to a casual fan.

Essentially they're taking the position that Marchand was interfered with in a manner that warranted a penalty on Hedman, but that he FELL TOO DRAMATICALLY.

Good luck policing that distinction in anything resembling a consistent manner.

If this shit truly is about Marchand than the league can just go fuck itself.

So how is it not interference for the Bruins player to be decked by a guy who blatantly wasn’t going for the puck?

Which league is the bigger clown show? The nhl or nfl? Tough call right now.
