BOS needs to get out of this period and regroup. All of the depth that they had all season long needs to find a way to show up. They look absolutely scrambly for good portions of the game.
If they can keep it 3-2 they will be in good shape. 4-2 could be a back breaker.

I mean, dont they already have that with the kicking motion rule? I wouldn't be entirely opposed to that with the hand pass, and in this case the Bruins player looked like he was just going for the stick, he barely moved the puck.
Presumably the reason you can't bat the puck in with your glove is because then the refs would have to decide if the player closed his hand on the puck and threw it in or batted it in.

Ullmark is looking tired. Swayman should've started this game. Bad rebound control, overcommitting. He hasn't played more than 2, maybe three games in a row. He's on game 6 in a row.

Ullmark has been good since giving up the third goal. A goal he had no chance on. Huge PP for FLA upcoming.
No chance on? he could have moved instead of staying still, to the side and far outside the crease.

Not quoting the entire rule, but
A “distinct kicking motion,” for purposes of Video Review, is one where the video makes clear that an attacking Player has deliberately propelled the puck with a kick of his foot or skate and the puck subsequently enters the net

Which then requires someone to decide whether the Player's actions were "deliberate." Which means, someone has to use judgment and infer a player's intent. Which means, every time it happens one group of people argue there was no intent and another group of people argue there was.

The hand pass rule is black-and-white, as outlined above. No one has to decide well was he really trying to direct the puck at his teammate, or was it accidental or pure circumstance or ... - it happens, it's a violation regardless of whether intent was involved or not.

if Boston loses this game they might as well lose Game 7 as well because there is no way this team is going to win the Cup
