GDT: GAME #46 Philadelphia at BRUINS - 1/14 1 PM, NESN, NHLN (US), SN, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[Dueling Banjos]

Blidh can drive.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

That penalty on Pastrnak was ********

 

[BruinDust]

Pasta taps Provorov's skates with his stick, Provorov hits the ice. No matching unsportsmanlike call.

Pasta, while trying to get his stick on a loose puck, gets tied up with Neuvirth and the Philly D-man. Gets called for embellishment.

Oh and called by the ref 100 ft away.

Just awful. Par for the course these days sadly.

 

[Replicator]

I just don't see how Pasta never gets the benefit of the doubt from the refs.

 

[DKH]

Bergeron with winner today

 

[TP]

Check that

beh

Intolerable.

 

[BklyNBruiN]

I want to see Chara shoot the puck more. Just don't kill anyone.

 

[22Brad Park]

Bruins need to send that tape into League and demand an answer why Ref 2 feet away called nothing there but Ref 50 feet away did..

 

[DitClapper]

Bergeron with winner today

Easily the worst 20 minutes of hockey he's played all year.

That's the amazing thing -- the man the furthest away, with no chance at all to see what was actually going on to make Pasta fall took it upon himself to assume it was embellishment. Very poor reffing. Inexcusable to be that bad.

As long as it's not a Bruin!

Its the NHL what do we expect.

Not only Pasta couldn't do anything with the puck but we were robbed of pp as well.

It's one of many reasons why the two-ref system, especially in it's current format, just doesn't work.

There needs to be some sort of separation of responsibilities to prevent calls like the embellishment vs. Pasta.

 

[JRull86]

Spooner just doesn't do it for me. Just bonehead play after bonehead play.

 

[Emerz]

I just think it's funny, just thinking about it logically, Pasta has a prime scoring chance which he's very likely about to put in the net, and the refs assumption is: Pastrnak completely disregards his scoring chance and just flops to the ice in an attempt to fool them pesky zebras in to getting a 2 minute powerplay. He didn't even get to shoot the puck...

He shouldn't be allowed to make that call.

I don't know how the NHL can't see this as a problem after all these years.

 

[mark3361]

he should at the very least consult with the ref that was two feet away before making that call

 

[Sharp Shooting Neely]

Is there anybody better in the league at creating scoring chances and finishing on the PK as often as Marshy?

Pick it up in the 2nd Bruins.!

Yeah, if you put some logic to it, it's just absurd.

 

[BklyNBruiN]

Would you guys be upset if Brad Marchand was given the C instead of Bergeron? I wouldn't mind. I love Marchands game, his enthusiasm for the game, and pretty much everything thus far about him is awesome. I'd love to hang out with him too lol I could just imagine.

 

[Sheppy]

The captain should and will be Patrice Bergeron.
