Unintended but it is a spear

 

[Score08]

Funny they let ovi nut tap Frederic with no penalty whatsoever

 

[SPV]

It looked like he was trying to fight for position out front

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Embarrassing NHL.

 

[TP70BruinsCup]

So they meet to say it’s a penalty…….when they didn’t all it originally…….then they meet again and review and call a major……on something that wasn’t a major.

The NHL honestly is laughable

 

[NeelyDan]

Dirty spear. Deserved the 5 and misconduct

Yeah I agree, dirty birdie play

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

That was nothing

5 min and he gets tossed for nothing it is!

 

[aic90]

Pretty low standard…

 

[Boston Bruno]

Time to go to Isenguard

 

[LSCII]

Dumb play by Gryz. Well deserved major because it was so obviously intentional.

 

[OV]

Grzelcyk helping Pacioretty practice family planning.

 

[DiggityDog]

Hard to argue the call.

Still surprised to see Gryz do that, seems out of character.

Surely you jest

 

[JoeIsAStud]

Cmon, the announcer trying to claim it was unintentional. Give me a break. Didn't know Gryz has a temper

 

[Bounces R Way]

I mean, he speared him in the nuts. Don't think it's what he meant to do but you can't do that.
Gryz does not have his head in the game way too often this season.

 

[CDJ]

I like when bad things happen to Max

 

[Mione134]

Not ideal

 

[Dr Quincy]

I don’t think it will. The goons are almost all extinct. The staged fights are almost non existent. Fighting is far less frequent than it was a decade ago. I think that was the goal.

With the UFC becoming as popular as it is, I don’t see an appetite to downright banning fighting in hockey.

Not going to speak on whether fighting will or will not remain in hockey... just responding to the UFC point.

Remember, UFC fights are sanctioned by a state athletic commission. They are regulated with things like weight classes and booking "somewhat" equivalent opponents. Any argument for fighting in hockey can't be based on MMA because of those rules and regulated facotrs.

People hate Gryz here so they are thrilled he got tossed. It was 2 guys jockying for position. Nothing malicious or warranting a game misconduct.

 

[trenton1]

2 minutes would have been about right.

 

[Sheppy]

Meh, whatever. Hopefully that’s his last game as a Bruin anyway.

 

[lopey]

Crucial kill

 

[LSCII]

5 min and he gets tossed for nothing it is!

He speared the guy intentionally in the nuts. He got exactly what he deserved.

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Hey Coyle move your fing feet

 

[lopey]

Holy sway
