Looks like a bit of a half hearted punch to me. Punching from your back shoulder is likely to take some of the force off to it though.
You mean this post?It's clearly a punch lol, Bennett lets go of his stick and punches him straight in the face as he's skating towards him. But it's Marchand so no one cares.
StrangeYou should go back and read again carefully
At no point did I make the statement that he released his stick, but keep the strawman going
Now tell me which part of that says "he released his stick"You mean this post?
Why do you do this to yourself?
Strange
Marchy has injured several players with dirty hits, that's why no one cares.I really naively believed people were against headshots
But I’m leaning today lots of people don’t actually care, as long as it’s someone they don’t like.

you are blind. its also with the butt end of the stickZero punch
If you wish to quibble over the slight difference in meaning between release and let go, clearly all you are looking for is a chance to dunk on both teams.Now tell me which part of that says "he released his stick"
Why do you do this to yourself ? I know you specifically hate me and the team I root for but this is a horrible look my guy lol
It is clearly a punch. Bennett clearly lets go of the stick with his left hand, as he punches Marchand with his right hand holding the stick up. Sorry writing it very descriptively just in case there's some sort of other misinterpretation.
Once again, please tell me the part where you read that I said "he released his stick" I'll wait

No one likes whataboutism and whining about double standards, but if Marchand suckerpunched someone and knocked them out for the series with a concussion, he'd be getting a 7 game suspension.
I don’t see this horrific blow to face some are seeing, and it sure looks likes Marchand hurt his shoulder, so I don’t know why people keep talking about a concussion.
I too use loaded language to downplay things, it's a very great way to have a bad faith argument.
Slow motion doesn't tell the story. At full speed Marchand basically ran himself into that.He punched him with the hand that had the stick.
You still can't go around punching people who are about to hit you.Slow motion doesn't tell the story. At full speed Marchand basically ran himself into that.
WTF !!Marchand's lack of a neck and abnormal body proportions make for awkward impacts. The guy seems to have a literal 2×4 for a spine. Obviously it comes with its own benefits and detriments. Guy can be an absolute bull in most situations but still crumple like some origami piece when pressured in the right place.
He's a genetic anomaly.

Slow motion tells the story of whether or not Bennett extended his arm in a punching motion, which has been disputed quite a bit in this thread.Slow motion doesn't tell the story. At full speed Marchand basically ran himself into that.
About to hit him?
It was during the hit where he ran into his fist holding his stick high in the air. That was no punch that I've ever seen.
This is “Earth is Flat” territoryAnd it doesn't mean that the way Marchand went into the hit didn't inadvertently cause his arm/fist to fly into his face. Totally possible.
How can that be seen as a reverse hit? Marchand hit center chest.It’s a big reverse hit, that’s the part Montgomery is actually bitching about, not any supposed punch to the face.

Okay bud you see what you want to (or don't want to) see.
Bruins should use the same tactics in game 4. Fire w/fire.you are blind. its also with the butt end of the stick
