Hockey novice here; I gather that it doesn’t matter that he was sort of pushed over the blue line on that possible offside play?

If the Bruins skate like this, they’re borderline unbeatable.

Correct, as far as I’ve always understood. Simply barreling into someone who doesn’t have the puck is interference though. That play was just plain old offsides.

I tried to pause on that play as close as I could get to the puck gaining the line. It wasn’t entirely clear to me that he was indeed offsides.

So, CBC was so locked into whether Bergeron was offside on the goal that they didn’t see Marchand until after Babcock decided not to challenge.
