Hopefully no concussion symptoms pop up in the next few days that’s usually when they appear the most

Really hope Brad plays the WC he really wants to play after missing the Habs one

IR can be retroactive back to the last game they played correct. So he could go on for Monday, and come off IR next Monday?

 

[Prince Pasta]

I'm assuming the Charlie to IR is strictly cause they planned to give him the day off and they need to drop a roster player to stay under the max roster size.

With Marchand out they need an extra foward Incase someone gets sick before Buffalo game so can’t risk sending JFK down

Per this tweet, Marchand may just be a stomach bug.

...how is that an upper body injury though? Couldn't a concussion cause nausea?

I love Marchand, but to be honest, him missing the WC due to a headshot against the Devils after the elbow on Johansson would be some poetic justice.

Like if this happened to Tom Wilson we'd probably be celebrating. Sucks for Marchand, but I can't call it unfair.

Dang it this team and the injuries this season.

What you can call unfair though is he gets punished for bad hits and guys who get him do not.I can see why he snaps.

That is terrible news.

Please be OK Brad.

While I can understand the logic, Marchand got 5 games, Zajac will get nothing

The logic being one is a habitual offender and the other is not?

Exactly. If it was reversed, the suspension would be too.

You can’t earn habitual offender status unless they start calling you on your ... offences

More the Idea of "Poetic Justice", we all remember Lucic borderline boarding Randy Jones a year after the Bergeron Hit. Its the idea that a stray elbow that didnt need to be thrown last year knocked the guy out for a quarter of the season, now Marchand get's knocked out (Potentially) for the WC and at least 1 game due to a stray elbow that didnt need to be lifted/thrown. Marchand got suspended for that (rightlfully) but Zajac isn't going to get anything (wrongfully)

I'm not comparing Marchand to Wilson, Wilson is a whole different level of stupid. But I'm sure other fanbases would hold them in the same regard.

Crying about Marchand getting a cheap shot and the other guy not getting anything is a waste of your time IMO. Marchand has been suspended umpteen times, and fined another umpteen times he could have gotten suspended... these guys deserve what they get which is shame because one day he really may get his and it will hurt our chances of success exponentially.

Bullshit.

I want him to play in the WC because he makes the Bruins better. I do kind of see your point, though. Lots of people might not like it, but I can see it.

Last I checked, stomach was above the waist, so it seems reasonable to call it upper body. And Bruce apparently said he wasn't feeling well going into the game.
