Yikes. So he's blaming them losing the series because Rask didn't steal one game??? That's a bit harsh. I could have agreed that Rask could or should have stolen a game but to pin them losing the series on him not stealing one game is a big stretch.
Well, he's definitely a Bruins fan....
I agree that Rask didn't steal a game, but there were periods where he was the one that kept them in it. TB had so many better quality shots on goal....
And I expected better from Don Cherry than the whole, "the refs hate Brad so they don't give Bruins calls so it's Marchand's fault".
Sorry, but hell no. If the refs are clearly biased it's a problem with those officials and the NHL as a whole and should be taken to the feds (as they're the one's that oversee professional sports in the United States). Call bias is in a sense rigging the game.
That is kind of true IMO.
In reality Rask half stole game 1 by holding the fort until we scored a few . Tbay was dominant early in that game like every game .
Don is entertaining but anyone who listens to a lot of the crap and silly things he says decide and swings series just lol lol He is totally ridiculous.
The reality is I would bet he didn't even watch the games close at all.
Disagree.
Marchand has done a lot of dumb stuff, been punished by the league and the refs. If the refs don’t like him, fine, but they are professionals who are paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to maintain objectivity, which some of them are clearly incapable of doing.
Marchand needs to cut the ****, but that doesn’t make referees being biased ok or even his fault.
That is kind of true IMO.
Yeah the not being able to score 5-5 was definitely the biggest issue,one reason why I couldn’t understand Cassidy not splitting up the top line to try and get some production,really other than the first two games against the Leafs and power plays,the top line had been unproductive,and had actually been lousy defensively to boot.Don't score a 5 on 5 goal for 3 straight games .. blame the goalie !!!
I wouldn’t say Rask was the reason they lost,but would say maybe he was one of the reasons.
I cannot stand this man. I so wish he would go away. I will never forget the too-many-men-on-the-ice penalty, Mr Ego with bad fashion style.
