GDT: Boston Bruins @ Toronto Maple Leafs at 7:00pm October 19th. PART II

[PromisedLand]

Avs doing leafs a favor beating tampa so far, leafs have to win this in regulation against that pos team and against the pos refs

 

[Antropovsky]

Marincin was right to react after Andy was hit. It's the refs that are 100% in the wrong. By giving coincidental minors they've basically said that Boston (or any of our opponents really) can run over our goalie with impudence and won't face any consequences if we decide to react and stick up for our teammate. They're basically telling us that any abuse we take we just have to take it, otherwise our powerplay will be negated. ****ing zebras are trying to neuter us when this team barely does anything physical to begin with.

Except chara can head long players at the end of every shift and go unpunished. Backes dropped his gloves and started to struggle because he wanted to square up and fight. Marincin merely grappled him to the ground to avoid the fight but initially deadlocked him to pull him away from Andersens space.

Ref should've called coincidental roughing minors and the interference call. If he wanted to call the roughing so bad.

That was a terrible terrible call by the refs

Huawei phones suck

That was Babcock

That poster's bias was really showing there.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Babcock has A reputation of not wanting his teams to take any penalties whatsoever ..
He always preaches against retaliation ...
We don’t have a tough team at all ..
We skate like the wind
We have all skill
Yet we seem to be penalized all the time and don’t draw them !
Weird

1 powerplay in last 100 minutes of hockey. Pretty sad.

The Bruins have played a 100% clean game though, really impressive.

 

[ULF_55]

Am I the only one who is completely shocked at how Marchand gets away with anything, and how nobody is punching him in the face when he does his dirty stuff??

Players let him get away with it.

Maybe he's just smarter than they are.

 

[The Beyonder]

One team looks like they're playing to win; the other team looks like they're skating around til the game is over. Pathetic.

 

[Dave92]

LOL, it's Babcock who said that!

You think Babcock doesn't want more actual toughness on the roster?

 

[CelticDruid]

Justin Holl has been good.

 

[ryno23]

Boston owner own Gary Betteman and it shows. Never seen such bias reffing. Not only the calls but the blatant interference they are allowed to run. rat face allowed to slew foot anyone. Chara allowed to mug anyone.

Just unreal

 

[SnizzMitch]

DeBrusk continuing from last years playoffs, diving all over the ice. Surprised Bruins fans like that guy, he doesn't really play Bruins hockey.

??? Bruins hockey is diving, he couldn't play more bruins hockey than that.

 

[MJ65]

They need to kill this penalty first

 

[TMLeafer]

I would bet $1000 that if a Bruin tackled a Leafs player after the Leaf ran the goalie, there would not be coincidental minors.

 

[Mitch Matthews]

Marincin ****ing sucks.

We've known this for a long time

 

[Gallagbi]

Yeah it's a penalty, but again, where's the call when Boston does it? Shameless amateur refs.

Problem isn't what is being called, it's what is not. The chara/Spezza slash earlier, interference all night, not going 4-2 on that Backed hit. Just bad game management by the refs.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Justin Holl has been good.

Yep. Marincin has been the tire fire

 

[ShaneFalco]

Justin Holl has been good.

Yup he's done his job

Marincin didn't even drop a glove.

Ooooo so scary!

If I'm a division rival, your damn right I'm gonna take liberties with Andy's head if I can. What's a better trade off? Andy goes down for 2 weeks and the Leafs sink in the standings? Or a pp goal against?

Gee.

Let me think!

 

[Polaris1010]

Avs look like champions. Really it took a one all time great trade to pull this off.

Well said.

 

[MattySnipes]

I would bet $1000 that if a Bruin tackled a Leafs player after the Leaf ran the goalie, there would not be coincidental minors.

You should've had that added as a wager in the Sportscash section. I'd put down too.

 

[fahad203]

Not a good period. If you play certain kind of hockey you can totally shut us off. That's because we got too many of similar players

Too many good skaters, not enough guys who play the heavy game.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Nylander just bent over resting on his stick. I don't know if I've ever seen that before. Embarrassing.

You've never seen a player tired after a long shift before?

 

[Gallagbi]

I would bet $1000 that if a Bruin tackled a Leafs player after the Leaf ran the goalie, there would not be coincidental minors.

That's just "Bruins hockey" same as interference and the stick work. These are just "hard plays" for a team with their rep, but good luck if we try that

 

[RoadWarrior]

Justin Holl has been good.

Dermott-Holl might be a good pairing when he comes back.
