Let's talk about Boston Bruins vs Florida Panthers Game 3 of the 2024 Stanle Cup Playoffs Round 2, which saw a controversial inteference call nearly derail the game.
I understand getting annoyed about a potentially dodgey call, but you can't win a gane with 8 shots across 2 periods. If I was a Bruins fan, that's what I'd be the most outraged about.
Boston would've gone on the P-play for holding where they have an increased chance to score. They then scored 2 goals to go down 2-4 (would be 2-3 (likely) or 3-3 because Florida scored on the Lauko penalty) Boston gave up an empty netter for the 5th goal which maybe never happens if this call is correct. Either way Boston played like trash. Can't get 8 shots in 2 periods and expect to win a game. That being said, when you see a call like this you have to point at it and say wtf. There were a couple of other iffy calls I but can't completely hate on them like I can with this one. Mason Lohrei completely screwed the Bruins like usual as well. Bruins D-Core has been awful since game 2. Bruins are looking like they did in G5 and G6 against Toronto. As a Bruins fan, it does make me mad when they play like this. But to ignore officiating THIS bad would be criminal. Would be a tough to win but still possible to win game.
It was the same thing against Toronto in game 6 when the Leafs held Boston to 1 shot through 40mins of Hockey the reason Toronto lost is because Toronto keeps beating THEMSELVES Boston is not what it use to be and good teams like Florida expose Boston
Shouldn't even have been revolting at the call. Should be revolting at how dog shit they have played the last two games. It's getting brutal and infuriating to watch.
Did you not hear the Bruins booed off the ice at the end of the second? We can multi-task, there's plenty of revolt in this big box of frustration for everyone.
That's like saying ; don't charge a guy for break and entering and assault. Instead, Do you want to press charges for the mess he made going through your things?" Low IQ hockey fans are about as low as it gets. One has nothing to do with the other.
Dallas Stars fans throw crap on the ice one time: *horror* Bruins and NJD fans do the same thing: "ah whatever. The fans have to make their disappointment known somehow!"
I am so tired of seeing players penalized for being driven into the opposition goalie by the opposition defender. There are so many improvements that can still be made to officiating in this sport.
And yet, of the 4 North American major sports, hockey officiating is now the best. The NFL officiating has become ridiculous, the NBA is downright awful (although it might get better a bit now that the Lakers are out), and MLB umpiring has been a joke for years now (are you listening Angel Hernandez, C.B. Bucknor?). Hockey has the best officials of the 4 major sports....I never thought I'd see the day when I'd say that. I mean, I grew up in the days of Wally "Let 'em Play" Harris and Don "Have Another Donut" Koharski.
The whole train is gonna get absolutely smashed by the Rangers, hopefully you know that. It doesn't matter who wins this series, nobody is stopping New York this year.
In Detroit it’s a tradition to throw an octopus on the ice. Panther fans throw rats on the ice during the game whenever the Bruins come to town. Unsportsmanlike, but complete silence. The hypocrisy is astounding.
I agree totally...it is an overt encouragement by the NHL to engage in that type of conduct. Personally, I'm all for those traditions 100%: octopus, catfish etc
Ever since they renovated the away dressing room in the garden, there’s been no advantage to the home team. Change was about 2 years ago btw. Look at the Bruins. Losing on home ice tonight, game 2 and 5 vs Toronto, losing vs Florida at home last year, etc. Look at the Celtics. Losing the finals to the Warriors and last year to the Miami Heat at home. This year they are 3-2 so far at home in the playoffs. They went 37-4 in the regular season at home, should be noted. Duncan Robinson, a Miami Heat basketball player, said the conditions before the dressing room renovation were awful, and now (I’ve been in there personally on a tour) it looks much more open and up to date. I mean you’d want it to be, but the Bruins and Celtics used to always have amazing home advantage before the new garden opened.
Nobody agreed with that call except panthers fans. The announcers didn't agree with it, one ref was motioning for a holding penalty not goalie interference.
The Panthers are undoubtedly an elite team, but that call is just another example of why NHL referees are completely in over their heads. Ultimately, it didn’t effect the outcome of the game, it was just a brutally bad call.
Also, watch the McDavid high stick on Quinn Hughes in the Edmonton-Vancouver game. Should have been an automatic four minute penalty, refs unbelievably missed it. Maybe we should just remove them from the ice and go to 1 ref, 2 linesmen, and replay whatever they miss. Perhaps the NHL game is just too fast now for mere humans to realistically officiate.
@@bradley8368meanwhile the Panthers player in this game was digging in his own mouth desperately trying to produce a molecule of blood for the double-minor.
The Pathers had their way with the Bruins. Rodrigues had a good night with two goals, and Tkachuk had some assists. Overall, it was a good performance by the team.
I've been digging the hustle the Panthers have played with. They got a little sloppy in the 3rd so I'd like to see that a bit cleaned up but when you are leading that big for the 2nd game in a row its almost understandable lol.
Agree. But it's still embarrassing to call something like that. Not even a Boston fan and they lose this game even without that penalty. Refs have just been brutal
1:15 no way. Absolute snipe puck coming from the right to the left essentially from behind his own player who it nearly grazes and roofs it in the perfect spot that he wouldn’t see until the the very end
Really hate the argument of “Can’t complain about refs when the team played bad anyway”. They are two completely separate issues. The reffing throughout the playoffs have been atrocious, so much so that I think there should be a completely overhaul/reconstruction of how reffing works in the game. Either that or find a way for refs to be more accountable for bad/missed calls. Either challenging the calls during the game or even a post game with the officials. If people at the arena and at home can make a call better than the officials themselves, that’s a big problem.
The arguement is idiotic. While yes, playing good means you win more, but with good officiating playing good means you win more often. This BS could have easily happened against Floriday and then the likelihood of a Bruins win goes way up. That'd be a huge revolt there.
@DetectiveNineHD yeah I agree but seeing how these last 3 games played out while I'm not eliminating Bostons chances I think its a safe bet to assume with Marchands injury if he doesn't return in game 4 their fate may unfortunately be sealed
Tumbling pucks are much harder to track than pucks that spin flat. They're like a knuckleball and we've all seen how even the catcher, who knows what's coming, can have trouble tracking it.
there not, im all for violence but panthers are just being pathetic every single shift you can see them holding the bruins sticks and arms, thats not hockey...
I've never been more frustrated watching hockey than I was last night. I'm a Bruins fan and holy jesus these 2 last games have been so bad that I'm convinced Panthers will take the series with ease. Not to mention the officiating has been absolutely terrible these playoffs but that's beside the point.
The fans should revolt over their team's inability to score on a power play or to stop Florida's power play. Revolt over getting 8 shots on goal over the first two periods. What a bunch of pathetic clowns.
Who ever was throwing shit on the ice should get banned from TD Garden, but this penalty was obviously the boiling point for your clowns. The Bruins were getting boo’d off the ice after the second period with only 8 SOG registered. Boston fans know hockey but like I mentioned before, throwing shit on the ice is unacceptable.
@@predat0r178 what would then stop away team fans from going to the game and throwing stuff to give the home team penalties? They could even wear the home team jersey just to sabotage them.
Terrible call. Not even an argument can be formed by any coherent fans that it was the right call. But the Bruins had already lost themselves the game by not only not showing up the first 30 minutes, but also another momentum killing penalty in the 2nd period. Finally had a string on good shifts then an unforced double minor for high sticking against a great team with a great PP. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bruins run Ullmark and a Providence callup or two next game since their season ended tonight. Knock some sense into some of the guys who are ghosts so far this series.
As a toronto fan I'm honestly glad to not have to watch hockey, I can enjoy my evenings without the stress. Wouldve just lost to florida like boston anways
Can anyone name a playoffs where officiating isnt the story? Its almost like all fans are naturally biased so they'll disagree with whatever call goes against their team
Did we see Canucks fans throw things on the ice because of a call that should've been made? No! These fans are getting mad over a call that doesn't matter. Canucks fans (even though they're up 3-2 by the time I'm commenting) deserve to be even angrier because they're actually playing OK! (In comparison to their opponent of course)
To be fair to the Bruins fans, they have a rich, long, history of horrendous officiating that didn't know how to deal with the surplus post-whistle garbage they are renowned for (slashes, spears, cross-checks, post-whistle hits, punches, pushes, blabbing, etc. etc). The officials have finally caught up and it's hard for the Bruins/their fans to accept. The Bruins are going to have to learn to play good, tough, play-off hockey, instead. I don't see this happening any time soon. It requires a whole-scale transition, starting at the top of this organization.
What’s wrong with that call though? He had the lane around the net but chose to try to cut back across goal. Defender had position, so it’s on the Bruin player to avoid contact, which there was no attempt to do.
I thought I heard on game 2 these refs suck on the ESPN broadcast of the Rangers and hurricanes but I'm also sure worse was said that they had the crowd silent for
The refs have been using poor criterion for calling penalties for about 5 years now. There seems to be no judgement during a call that differentiates between something that actually gains an advantage or takes one away. They just see a minor hold or hook or whatever and call it. The game is becoming a penalty kill vs power play contest.
Wow...Not only did Marchand get OUT-PESTED last game (surprisingly by Montour, who got the better of Marchand and made him look stupid) but is also injured? Crazy.
One call doesn't a game make. While it was a questionable call in the minds of many ref said play on. You can't assume the Bruins would have scored any goals in that span or any other span for that matter. There is one reason the Bruins aren't doing better. They aren't scoring goals and the reason they aren't scoring goals or more goals is they aren't shooting the puck enough. The standard I have always gone by is 30 a game. If you get 30 shots on goal a game and lose so be it but at least you tried. Through the first 3 games of this series the Bruins have been outshot 105 to 61. Still they only got 29 shots on goal in game 1. At point in the third when the Bruins finally got a shot on goal it was mentions it was their first in over 14 minutes of play The Bruins are tired, they weren't built for a deep playoff run. But I can tell you this will be a short series and end in FL in game 5 if the Bruins don't find a way to shoot the puck more, a whole lot more. And before you start calling me names, I am a life long Bruins fan. I still have the Boston Record American Paper from this day 52 years ago celebrating the goal SHOOT the Puck it is the only way you have a chance to win the game BTW Eck. Love your videos
Just goes to show how far away from a Stanley Cup the Toronto Maple Leafs are. There is a big jump between the teams that make the playoffs and those that don't, but there's also a big jump between teams that win Stanley Cups and those that just get in.
As a wings fan. I hate boston with a passion. But that was the worst fucking call I have ever seen. Might want to check the zebras pockets after tonight
I love how all the losers all's they got is. How many cups does your team have you sound like a big loser man The windshield is bigger than the rear view Mirror for a reason. But you keep living in the past. Let me know how that goes.
I was saying a couple days ago. If Swayman isn't standing on his skull every night against the Panthers, they're not facing a Samsonov on the other end, so things can get out of hand very quickly.
Here's the thing, was it the right call? Technically yes. Should it have been called? Probably not. But did it actually impact the outcome of the game? No, you can't win a game when you're being out shot 3:1, and it was 3-0 Florida at this moment
I didn't even expect the bruins to make the playoffs. They'll actually have cap space this offseason so they can put together a real team next year instead of being forced to fill out the roster with scrap heap guys like they had to this year. Hopefully, they get some real goddamn centers because coyle and zacha have been dead weight in this playoff run.
I told my son 2 months ago they were imposters and would get the crap kicked into them in the playoffs. They were only high in the standings because they had a lot of OT losses which got them points. But they were still LOSSES.
Calling it now, next season, chucking shit on the ice becomes a delay of game for the home team, then they'll realise away fans can do it and revert back so damn fast
This has been happening a lot this season. Give up 8 or more shots than you take. There was a stretch Where Swayman had better or equal numbers than his opponent and lost just because they took ten more shots. Most teams elevate their game for the playoffs Bruins have not and even look flat.
Dan O’Rourke called pretty much the same penalty on Brayden Point a couple of years ago, and exact same situation, he was also pushed into the goaltender. Then he gets paired with Chris Lee for the Habs/Vegas series and you know how that went
That call could have gone either way. Maybe a penalty, maybe not. I have a feeling that the Bruins are going to come back banging but the Panthers are such a solid squad
The call wouldn’t have changed the game, by any stretch. I do just want to know what Lauko is supposed to do on that situation? He was being directed towards the goalie and had no way of changing course. Feel like it should have been a minor for holding and a minor for goalie interference, that would have been fair.
bruins played like garbage all night long, but some of the calls were downright dog shit, to the point where the dude next to me took off his jersey and threw it off the bannister .. bruins need to step the fuck up. and the calls ned to stop being so one sided its grotesque, either way cant win a hockey game with 8 shots in 2 periods, but right when bruins came out in the 2nd with momentum peppering bob they called a 4 minute and we gave 2 goals it was fucking absolute mayham. ... td garden is never quiet and tonight we were fucking silent for a majority of the game cant win a series looking like that on the ice.
I'm not a Bruins fan but this non call is typical of the crappy officiating in professional sports in general. It's not about who deserves to win (not that the Bruins deserved to win this game) it's more about who they think should win to promote the sport. Games are managed by the league.
Bruins allowed 12 goals in 2 games while scoring 3 themselves Panthers are just skating rings around then. Yes, that was a bad call but good lord , you won’t win having 9 shots on goal after 40 mins . Yikes !
Not gonna lie, I think the Leafs did beat Boston down with their physicality, and it showed in the last 3 games of that series. Having to face Florida immediately after is BRUTAL.
That was a really bad call by the ref. The FL player should have been the one to have a penalty against them. The Bruins player had no way to change where he was going with the FL player holding him like that. The refs do need to answer for those types of calls after the game, just like the players and the coaches do in front of the media.
I fully agree, and it’s something I’d love to see as well, but then there should be some changes to the system, as well as fan mentality. It’s an overtly complex situation but the best way I can describe it is players and coaches are “public figures” and their paychecks reflect that. So start off by paying refs more if they are to hold press conferences and be constantly criticized even more so. Second, is the fan mentality. I’d hear in media sometime especially for more variable sports like baseball and basketball “this player had a bad shooting game”, or “this player is on a slump and hasn’t gotten a hit in 3 games” etc. You’d also see hockey players missing wide open nets every once in a while. These supposedly “routine” plays that pro sports players mess up sometimes even though they practice them every day seem to be much more easily forgiven by the media and fans than when an official is in the wrong spot/has a bad angle, or has a brain fart, especially with how fast paced games are up close. People go “how did the ref miss that” when they’re watching from a Birds Eye view camera angle or especially slowmo, so I hope if this does happen in the future that people can be a bit more understanding that refs are human too, just like the players. It absolutely frustrates me as a fan when refs screw up and I used to think I could do a much better job, so I tried it, and it’s HARD. It absolutely opened my eyes and I feel like a lot of fans/players/coaches need to try it out at some level to gain some insight. I agree with you, it was a terrible call, and this thing you’re suggesting is awesome since it’ll allow the fans to understand what they were thinking at the time (I was genuinely curious what the ref was saying to the Bruins coach). Sorry for this being long, I really do like your take, but I know from experience this issue isn’t black/white and it wouldn’t be fair to put refs under even more of a spotlight when I genuinely believe they’re already one of the most abused professions to my knowledge
Whatever. Missed call on Tarasenko in game 2 right in front of the refs. They get things wrong. That’s why you need to have a good PK, and Boston does not.
What do you mean Swayman should've seen the slapper?!?! His OWN teammate completely screened him like he was on the other team!! (Beecher if I recall correctly)
he went straight at bob, ekblad was trying to pull him off course. F**k the Bruins. Marshand shouldnt even be playing. he pushed a ref, which is a mandatory 10 game suspension.
I understand getting annoyed about a potentially dodgey call, but you can't win a gane with 8 shots across 2 periods. If I was a Bruins fan, that's what I'd be the most outraged about.
*game
Would have been a completely different game without that penalty so yah I would be upset about the call.
@@Schrogs you say that, but the score is already 3-0 and bruins had what.. 8 shots? Get your head out of the sand

"Officiating has been a story this playoffs" has it ever not been?
Terrible call. Not even an argument can be formed by any coherent fans that it was the right call. But the Bruins had already lost themselves the game by not only not showing up the first 30 minutes, but also another momentum killing penalty in the 2nd period. Finally had a string on good shifts then an unforced double minor for high sticking against a great team with a great PP. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bruins run Ullmark and a Providence callup or two next game since their season ended tonight. Knock some sense into some of the guys who are ghosts so far this series.
I'm just happy Toronto won't win for another year.
As a toronto fan I'm honestly glad to not have to watch hockey, I can enjoy my evenings without the stress. Wouldve just lost to florida like boston anways
@@Brandontroll And here you are watching hockey 😁
@@Brandontroll you could always watch the PWHL. The Toronto woman's team is 2-0 over Minnesota.
Just there. Super crazy seeing all the beer cups on the ice 😂 also WHAT THE HECK BOSTON?! Terrible start… 8 shots? Are you kidding?
With all the missed calls in their favour against the leafs, they have nothing to complain about
Can anyone name a playoffs where officiating isnt the story? Its almost like all fans are naturally biased so they'll disagree with whatever call goes against their team
Give the coach credit for the duty play, It started when the puck dropped.
2023 Round 1 Deja Vu
No, that was way worse if the Panthers somehow blow this league, they have my God
Boston been getting it their way all season just have to go back to the leafs game to look at missed calls 😊
Did we see Canucks fans throw things on the ice because of a call that should've been made? No! These fans are getting mad over a call that doesn't matter. Canucks fans (even though they're up 3-2 by the time I'm commenting) deserve to be even angrier because they're actually playing OK! (In comparison to their opponent of course)
You mean the same fans that Burned their own city down because You Losers got Shut out in Game 7?????
Do you not remember 2011, probably the worst team to compare 😂😂😂
To be fair to the Bruins fans, they have a rich, long, history of horrendous officiating that didn't know how to deal with the surplus post-whistle garbage they are renowned for (slashes, spears, cross-checks, post-whistle hits, punches, pushes, blabbing, etc. etc). The officials have finally caught up and it's hard for the Bruins/their fans to accept. The Bruins are going to have to learn to play good, tough, play-off hockey, instead. I don't see this happening any time soon. It requires a whole-scale transition, starting at the top of this organization.
Canadian fans hear pin drops in arena.. like hello there's a hockey game right in front of you taking place
@@Nateighttmust be a new fan
What’s wrong with that call though? He had the lane around the net but chose to try to cut back across goal. Defender had position, so it’s on the Bruin player to avoid contact, which there was no attempt to do.
I thought I heard on game 2 these refs suck on the ESPN broadcast of the Rangers and hurricanes but I'm also sure worse was said that they had the crowd silent for
The refs have been using poor criterion for calling penalties for about 5 years now. There seems to be no judgement during a call that differentiates between something that actually gains an advantage or takes one away. They just see a minor hold or hook or whatever and call it. The game is becoming a penalty kill vs power play contest.
Wow...Not only did Marchand get OUT-PESTED last game (surprisingly by Montour, who got the better of Marchand and made him look stupid) but is also injured? Crazy.
He got butt-ended by Bennett, and how surprising... no call.

@@InfamousSlappy I'm sorry that facts trigger you so much. You'll deal, snowflake.
@@InfamousSlappy He did get cheap shotted. Just because Marchand is a rat doesn't mean everyone can ignore what a bunch of punks this Florida team is.
Ekblad hard core holding his jersey pulling him to the ground but that is somehow a B's penalty. Ok.
I mean, it was only a two handed tackle by Ekblad. Bruins are crazy for expecting a call there
One call doesn't a game make. While it was a questionable call in the minds of many ref said play on. You can't assume the Bruins would have scored any goals in that span or any other span for that matter. There is one reason the Bruins aren't doing better. They aren't scoring goals and the reason they aren't scoring goals or more goals is they aren't shooting the puck enough. The standard I have always gone by is 30 a game. If you get 30 shots on goal a game and lose so be it but at least you tried. Through the first 3 games of this series the Bruins have been outshot 105 to 61. Still they only got 29 shots on goal in game 1. At point in the third when the Bruins finally got a shot on goal it was mentions it was their first in over 14 minutes of play
The Bruins are tired, they weren't built for a deep playoff run. But I can tell you this will be a short series and end in FL in game 5 if the Bruins don't find a way to shoot the puck more, a whole lot more. And before you start calling me names, I am a life long Bruins fan. I still have the Boston Record American Paper from this day 52 years ago celebrating the goal
SHOOT the Puck it is the only way you have a chance to win the game
BTW Eck. Love your videos
Just goes to show how far away from a Stanley Cup the Toronto Maple Leafs are.
There is a big jump between the teams that make the playoffs and those that don't, but there's also a big jump between teams that win Stanley Cups and those that just get in.
The officiating has been non consistent. They either let them play or they dont and its happening on a game by game basis.
As a wings fan. I hate boston with a passion. But that was the worst fucking call I have ever seen. Might want to check the zebras pockets after tonight
How's your team doing?
@@reynardus1359 how many Stanley cups yall got?
I love how all the losers all's they got is. How many cups does your team have you sound like a big loser man The windshield is bigger than the rear view Mirror for a reason. But you keep living in the past. Let me know how that goes.
@@frankpropri540 enjoy that singular Cup finals appearance every 25 years :) (still doing better than some in that regard)
@@frankpropri540 You're trying to call someone else a loser with that monstrosity of a comment...lmfao. Get off the internet, go read a book or two.
The officiating has been some of the worst I've ever seen in these playoffs in my life.
Yes, this call sucked, but it's definitely not why we lost. Getting completely outplayed is why we lost.
I was saying a couple days ago. If Swayman isn't standing on his skull every night against the Panthers, they're not facing a Samsonov on the other end, so things can get out of hand very quickly.
Here's the thing, was it the right call? Technically yes. Should it have been called? Probably not.
But did it actually impact the outcome of the game? No, you can't win a game when you're being out shot 3:1, and it was 3-0 Florida at this moment
I didn't even expect the bruins to make the playoffs. They'll actually have cap space this offseason so they can put together a real team next year instead of being forced to fill out the roster with scrap heap guys like they had to this year. Hopefully, they get some real goddamn centers because coyle and zacha have been dead weight in this playoff run.
I told my son 2 months ago they were imposters and would get the crap kicked into them in the playoffs. They were only high in the standings because they had a lot of OT losses which got them points. But they were still LOSSES.
Calling it now, next season, chucking shit on the ice becomes a delay of game for the home team, then they'll realise away fans can do it and revert back so damn fast
It's already a delay of game.
As a Toronto fan we need to take notes
I think the game they would want to mind wipe would be game 7 last year
This has been happening a lot this season. Give up 8 or more shots than you take. There was a stretch Where Swayman had better or equal numbers than his opponent and lost just because they took ten more shots. Most teams elevate their game for the playoffs Bruins have not and even look flat.
Dan O’Rourke called pretty much the same penalty on Brayden Point a couple of years ago, and exact same situation, he was also pushed into the goaltender. Then he gets paired with Chris Lee for the Habs/Vegas series and you know how that went
You can’t blame the refs for the atrocious play by the Bruins. The Bruins lost the game when the puck dropped.
At very least that should've been matching penalties!? Really Bruins should've had the PP!?
That call could have gone either way. Maybe a penalty, maybe not. I have a feeling that the Bruins are going to come back banging but the Panthers are such a solid squad
I remember Bobby Baun broke his leg and he came back to finish the game I'm not sure but I think he scored the winning goal to win the Stanley Cup
...and it continued in game four.
Brutal.
The call wouldn’t have changed the game, by any stretch. I do just want to know what Lauko is supposed to do on that situation? He was being directed towards the goalie and had no way of changing course. Feel like it should have been a minor for holding and a minor for goalie interference, that would have been fair.
The ref's have been brutal for every team. I can't believe the league lets it happen
Reigning Vezina Trophy winner Linus Ulmark will no doubt be in goal in game 4 to even the series.
Sure helped vs the Leafs. And that was when he wasn't as cold coming off the bench. Good luck with that. Panthers in an easy 5.
@@realrealityeast6278 you wish.
Boston needs goals.
If the refs are gonna let everything go, what was the reason for that call?
bruins played like garbage all night long, but some of the calls were downright dog shit, to the point where the dude next to me took off his jersey and threw it off the bannister .. bruins need to step the fuck up. and the calls ned to stop being so one sided its grotesque, either way cant win a hockey game with 8 shots in 2 periods, but right when bruins came out in the 2nd with momentum peppering bob they called a 4 minute and we gave 2 goals it was fucking absolute mayham. ... td garden is never quiet and tonight we were fucking silent for a majority of the game cant win a series looking like that on the ice.
Wait you thought they had a chance in this series?? LOL
And then another controversial call last night with the panthers’ second goal.
I am a panther fan and I did not agree with the car when he went into the net
Bruins always crowd the net a taste of their own medicine looks good go panthers
Boston is lucky to still be playing their aging line up is no match for the younger faster teams
I am not sure that most NHL fans would think of not having Brad Marchand on the roster as a major loss...
I'm not a Bruins fan but this non call is typical of the crappy officiating in professional sports in general. It's not about who deserves to win (not that the Bruins deserved to win this game) it's more about who they think should win to promote the sport. Games are managed by the league.
Ironic. Boston got away with the same call against the Leafs and it's why they're here.
leafs fan
Did it result in a penalty against the Leafs?
bad call, but Boston has been getting walked by FLA. If you didn't see it coming take off the Jack Edwards glasses
Officiating have been brutal tonight.
Boston has been dishing this kind of stuff out for years , how's it taste.
It tastes good, salty mostly
The Bruins played really well. For 10-12 minutes out of 60. The officiating is the least of their problems.
Maybe Pasta should try to fight someone hahaha
That was supposed to fire up the team eh wat LOL 😆
YEAH RIGHT 🤣
Stay classy Boston. Like your rat 'captain', booing your own team and littering the ice with beer cans shows it.
Felt like they were more physical, ha, they whooped their ass.
I was wondering who has failed their own fandom, Xbox or Toronto Maple Leafs?
Bruins allowed 12 goals in 2 games while scoring 3 themselves
Panthers are just skating rings around then.
Yes, that was a bad call but good lord , you won’t win having 9 shots on goal after 40 mins . Yikes !
Don't act like this game was close 😂😂
At least we dont have an Angel Hernandez type refs
Throwing things must be less with the protective netting at both ends... on top of a possible minor for delay of game🤔
Not surprised. The bs don’t even belong in the playoffs
NHL officiating is the problem the league never seems to address.
Not gonna lie, I think the Leafs did beat Boston down with their physicality, and it showed in the last 3 games of that series. Having to face Florida immediately after is BRUTAL.
8 shots in 2 periods is something bruins fans should be mad it, bad call or not your teams playing like booty
That was a really bad call by the ref. The FL player should have been the one to have a penalty against them. The Bruins player had no way to change where he was going with the FL player holding him like that. The refs do need to answer for those types of calls after the game, just like the players and the coaches do in front of the media.
I fully agree, and it’s something I’d love to see as well, but then there should be some changes to the system, as well as fan mentality. It’s an overtly complex situation but the best way I can describe it is players and coaches are “public figures” and their paychecks reflect that. So start off by paying refs more if they are to hold press conferences and be constantly criticized even more so.
Second, is the fan mentality. I’d hear in media sometime especially for more variable sports like baseball and basketball “this player had a bad shooting game”, or “this player is on a slump and hasn’t gotten a hit in 3 games” etc. You’d also see hockey players missing wide open nets every once in a while. These supposedly “routine” plays that pro sports players mess up sometimes even though they practice them every day seem to be much more easily forgiven by the media and fans than when an official is in the wrong spot/has a bad angle, or has a brain fart, especially with how fast paced games are up close. People go “how did the ref miss that” when they’re watching from a Birds Eye view camera angle or especially slowmo, so I hope if this does happen in the future that people can be a bit more understanding that refs are human too, just like the players.
It absolutely frustrates me as a fan when refs screw up and I used to think I could do a much better job, so I tried it, and it’s HARD. It absolutely opened my eyes and I feel like a lot of fans/players/coaches need to try it out at some level to gain some insight.
I agree with you, it was a terrible call, and this thing you’re suggesting is awesome since it’ll allow the fans to understand what they were thinking at the time (I was genuinely curious what the ref was saying to the Bruins coach). Sorry for this being long, I really do like your take, but I know from experience this issue isn’t black/white and it wouldn’t be fair to put refs under even more of a spotlight when I genuinely believe they’re already one of the most abused professions to my knowledge
Whatever. Missed call on Tarasenko in game 2 right in front of the refs.
They get things wrong. That’s why you need to have a good PK, and Boston does not.
We’re gonna get a part 2!
Imagine living in a world where you're not allowed to watch the fans react negatively.
What do you mean Swayman should've seen the slapper?!?! His OWN teammate completely screened him like he was on the other team!! (Beecher if I recall correctly)
Swayman is beatable up high. Most shots he has let in are roofed. The Panthers have him figured out
They're more upset at the Bruins getting easily beaten by the Panthers. I'm surprised the Bruins won the first game. I figured a 4 game sweep
he went straight at bob, ekblad was trying to pull him off course. F**k the Bruins. Marshand shouldnt even be playing. he pushed a ref, which is a mandatory 10 game suspension.
