How long do you think he will be out with concussion symptoms? Do you think it’s carrer ending? GTFO of here!

The fact that a player wasn’t injured on a dangerous play doesn’t make it any less terrible.

Not every headshot leads to a concussion, but that doesn’t mean they’re suddenly okay.

Absolutely nothing play, it’s the playoffs if that’s the worse Marner get in a game he should be lucky. Leaf fans are way to focused on Brads pest like actions.....literally a nothing play.

I’m not a fan of either team.

Another day, another Marchand dirty play

To be fair though, this one didn't look that bad

Should warrant a suspension, hockey doesn't need any more head shots at this point.

Do you want 40 penalties a game? Because that's how you get 40 penalties a game. There are sooooooo many of these types of things that happen every game with every team. This one was hardly even worth noting other than with amusement.

Yeah, I understand that, but it's not a hockey play, it easily could have been called roughing, it is what it is.

I'm not upset either way I don't have a horse in the race.

I would have loved to see Marchand shove one of our players on the ice in April.

I mean, pushing someone into the ice is an annoying f***ing play that should be a penalty, but suggesting that this is evidence that Marchand is going to end someones career doesn't seem particularly reasonable to me.

Guys have been doing that play for years, I can't think of anyone ever getting injured from it. I don't think it's inherently that dangerous, it's just an incredibly annoying rat move.

I think its more of the principle. He keeps getting away with little things. May lead to a more serious incident if the little things are not seen and dealt with. To me another more prominent example would be the butt end to the face of Andersen in game 3

Marchand is starting to become one of my favorite players . He’s a dick but doesn’t give 1 f*** . On top of it he’s a star who produces . Plus Boston is my 2nd team because my father is from there so Go Bruins !

Not really threadworthy, just the rat doing rat like things. He's a :eek::eek::eek::eek: and deserved a penalty there

It's not a dangerous play in any way.

I mean it's a cheap shot. He keeps holding his head down. But he didn't once slam him down in anyway, which is what i was expecting with thread title.

Poor sportsmanship 100%. But intent to injure? I don't see it.

That one is actually kind of hilarious, but yeah, Ratboy needs to get suspended here sooner or later.

I swear to you, this is reaching the level of another specific famous person that I can't name, where they start off doing bad behavior, and it's seen as extremely ridiculous, but they start to do it so often that it just becomes "kind of hilarious" and everybody just stops caring because they're so desensitized by it happening and nobody doing anything about it.
