Matthews is in some sort of funk

As silly as this seems, this is exactly what some seem to be advocating.2 minutes for hitting a leaf
As a Bruins fan I agree it was a terribly officiated game. the only difference is that some/many Leafs fans feel that only one team suffered because of the loosely officiated games while even after video evidence showing Leafs also got away with some. Meanwhile, still defending Kadri's actions because the refereeing was less then stellarNot a fan of Leafs or Bruins. I don't know how anyone could watch that game and think it was anything other than terribly officiated.

If Kadri had a beef with debrusk he had a rainbow of options other than " cross check him I'm the face"
But that's not the type of player Kadri is, is it now?

The only play that I can think of right away is when Muzzin injured Krug and some Bruins fans consider it to be boarding, however there are other Bruins fans who also thought it was a clean hit.I hope this is simply a disingenuous attempt to troll. Otherwise i'm really not sure what to say if you don't think the Leafs got away with a few as well.
ok here goes, there is a GIF all over this board of Kadri taking another cross check to the back of DeBrusks headThe only play that I can think of right away is when Muzzin injured Krug and some Bruins fans consider it to be boarding, however there are other Bruins fans who also thought it was a clean hit.
So using that logic why did Pastrnak get 2:00 minutes for charging?
It's debatable that he should have got 5:00 minutes since he left his feet to make the hit and the fact Muzzin was bleeding.Muzzin getting hit by Pasta was called 2 minutes
Can only imagine whats next thread could be,
"Hfboard poster calls out game 2 officiating"
Big deal, game was fine .

I said this before and I will say it again, the calls on both teams should be consistent. In Game 1 both Nylander and Kapanen were given 2:00 minutes for high sticking. In Game 2 John Tavares got a stick in his face and the ref did not give the Bruins a penalty for that. So those are some of the plays the Toronto media is talking about.They let stuff go which is fine. There wasn't really anything egregious on either side. A couple two minute penalties that maybe could've called. But nothing to write home about. - except for the Kadri idiocy.
It just sounds like Leaf-fans arguing against playoff intensity.
Someone who gets it. Being original six teams, you would think both fanbases would understand this.It’s a tale as old as time. When the playoffs start the whistles get swallowed. Anyone who thinks the game is officiated the same when the playoffs start hasn’t been watching
It's one thing if the refs swallow their whistles because it's the playoffs. However like I said before if they are going to call high sticking penalties against Nylander and Kapanen like we saw in Game 1, it's not unreasonable for Leafs fans wanting to see that same penalty called on the Bruins when John Tavares gets a stick in his face and are upset when the same penalty is not called on them.Someone who gets it.

Resume the whining.

If you want to bring up stuff from last year I remember in Game 1 the Bruins scored a goal that was offside and for whatever reason Babcock did not challenge it. Basically that JVR goal was karma coming back against Boston for scoring an offside goal. So I can also play this what if game myself.And chara cleared a puck off glass last year got a penalty and jvr scored a pp goal which turned the game and maybe the series. If toronto can’t overcome bad officiating that’s on them

I agree it was, however the fact is the Bruins still scored a goal that was offside. So don't complain when JVR scored a goal on a penalty call against Chara that you thought was wrong.Babcock not challenging is his fault

Maybe they should have called a few headshots that kadri took, like this one and the one on Krejci. He sure has a thing for going after guys heads. Its like all leaf players are not allowed to get hit, ppl should try watching the games from the 70s and 80s. These snowflakes would be fainting all over the place. This is playoff hockey, not soccer.
