Wow. Parros actually got it right for once. **** Kadri!

It’s kind of funny that Parros ignored the fact that Kadri jumped and turned to increase the force of the hit. And, he conveniently left out all the “intention” stuff he used to suspend Marchand.

Yeah, three games is great but it just increases the level of doubt most people have in the Player Safety rulings. Marchand had history and got five for an elbow. Backes had no history and got three for a clean hit. Kadri has history and he really made an effort to hammer a defenseless player.

I wonder if Drew Doughty inadvertently did the Bruins a favor by complaining about his suspension

It did nothing to quell any doubts I have about DoPS being subjective and fair. It was way more than I expected because of the lack of those two very things in DoPS rulings. Therefore, I'll take it.

How can some Leafs fans call three games a joke? The guy left his feet, hip-checked his head, admitted it was retaliatory, and has a bad history. Cry about it some more why don't you?

I'm glad they threw the book at him, but knowing that the DoPS isn't f***ing around or giving playoff discounts to incidents this year (Doughty, Kadri), I hope Bruce calls Marchand in for a quick little meeting like "play your game, but be smart"

Yeah hopefully You Know Who doesn't take this as a green light to do something equally stupid & wrong.

Bruins/Leafs, when I look at this series, it's a little crazy to think this is round 1.

Assuming BOS/TB take care of business and they hold form...... that's an East Finals matchup in round 2. They met in the 2011 East Finals under the old format.

It's pretty crazy to think that 1-2 could meet in the 2nd round.

BOS and TOR were #2 and #4 in the East. Flyers/Penguins, #5 and #6.

That's..... odd.

Under the old format, Boston would have played the Flyers- and they probably might have 5-1'd them last night.
