For what its worth, the PP-PK time isnt a proper assessment, since it just tabulates time spent on special teams, and doesnt account for the time lost due to goals scored.

My habs top that list too, and who knows how much of that is reputation?

But OP needs to point out certain things that are obvious infractions that arent called, instead of just saying "DA REFS".

Ya, if their games were called like any other game, they would get a few more PP. But they would also get penalized twice as much and we'd have to hear about that.

This is the answer we gave last time this thread was made. It is also known as the correct answer.

And that last sentence is just too true

I agree with the last part in regards to recent years, but that 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 team were a bit on the faster/skilled side with guys like Kessel, Kobasew, Sturm, and Savard and max effort guys like Metropolit (who I actually remember drawing a bunch of penalties), Axelsson, Sobotka, and Nokelainen.

I can see how you would get tired of people yelling "conspiracy" because the B's don't draw penalties, but just remember there is a flip side where everybody yells "Daddy Campbell!!!11one!!1" at everything which might potentially favor the Bruins (which is ridiculous when you see how often they go on the PP)

Well I think both are dumb, there is no conspiracy one way or the other lol

It always has and always will be part of Claude Julien's game.

they move the puck via short passes instead of carrying it and they play the game at a slower pace.

Nothing to see here, it's not a Bruins thing, it's a Claude thing...was the case even in Montreal.

Small price to pay for the refs swallowing their whistles repeatedly in the playoffs.

They are slow as ****. No one is going to take a penalty against a team that barely moves
