Because he possessed the puck. And the defender didn’t hook, slash, high-stick, or cross-check him. And it’s the 3rd period of a road playoff game.Don't let this get closer than 2 please.
And I don't understand what an NHL penalty is. DeBrusk on a sort-of breakaway and the defender basically just tackles him and that's no penalty. Why?
They’re probably getting a jump from being down and Matthews isn’t walking through that door.Toronto suddenly has a ton of energy. Boston needs to calm things down by controlling the puck a little bit here. Take a little wind out of their sails, please.
And shorten the benchGet through the next 5 and then get one on a counter.
Is that a requirement to post here? Damn... Sorry all.I feel like you can tell which posters have and haven't spent a lot of time in a locker room haha
Lol of course not, just an observation. We are a finicky bunchIs that a requirement to post here? Damn... Sorry all.
Glad Jake’s head didn’t hit the ice hard on that body slam/take down move by NylanderMan, the Leafs take some brain dead penalties.
Ok, this I didn't know. I didn't realize you could literally tackle the puck-carrier who's breaking away to the goal.Because he possessed the puck. And the defender didn’t hook, slash, high-stick, or cross-check him. And it’s the 3rd period of a road playoff game.
It’s called “The WWF”I'm almost impressed at how bad that penalty was. Like, that was the move?
