That Jarvis goal was awesome. He accelerated on the entire Bruins defense without ducking his head or extending his stride to kill his balance. And then that scoring in tight. my goodness that one is a fun to rewatch.

Dare I ask?
Cap here thinks that Finnish sounds like squirrel-speak. And after that saying, I'm inclined to agree with him.

@Beef Invictus when a Finnish person wants to say "Thank you," they say this: "Keetos."

I defy you to convince me that that's not exactly the way a squirrel would say "Thank you" and "Thanks."

I mean that's just garbage. If you're going to call that, you're telling players they have to allow themselves to get boarded, or else they'll be called for the penalty for bracing.

Svech needed to touch the puck there a think. He never touched the puck and didn’t attempt to play the puck and railroaded the guy. I think if he touches the puck first and then throws the reverse hit he’s fine because he’s protecting himself while making a play on the puck.

Seeing the replay has me at least seeing why they called it. Not that I’ve ever seen that called before but it makes more sense as interference seeing it that way.

I don't exactly disagree, except that the only thing he interfered with was Lazar drilling him from behind because there was NO play Lazar could have made on the puck otherwise. Svech had 2 options: drill or be drilled...I'm glad he chose the former because I'd rather he have a 2 min penalty than a long-term injury

Well naturally. Finns learned to speak predominantly for to lure squirrels, whose pelts were used as a currency back in the day. Moikka moi, pikku puurotta, iskä tarvitsee uudet kengät.

Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6 and all that.

And yeah, I don't mind that kind of play from Svech at all. Those are the kinds of penalties you'll occasionally take when you play as physical as he does.
