Paquette punches Chara, Chara proceeds to one punch him.

Oh look now Marchand is basically inferring threats to Paquette in his post game interview.

Stay so damn classy.

Team is a joke from top to bottom. Within two years they will be back to missing the playoffs every year and no one will care.

[MOD]

Why did Pacquette even challenge Chara? He honestly shouldn't of expected anything else

He must have thought the Bruins were too classy to respond.

Some real stupidity involved when you keep taking shots at Chara. Must have a couple screws loose upstairs. He got off lucky too.

Back? Has any team missed the playoffs less than the Bruins since expansion? They haven't missed the playoffs more than twice in a row since the 60s and they were in for almost 30 years straight at one point.

Obviously every year was hyperbole but they missed 5 out of 10 years during the span before they started to become elite for the last 5 years.

Hell baby
Jesus christ, people are still on about this? Not the first time it's happened and I'm sure it wont be the last. Get the **** over it.

I'm damn sick of the "class" argument. It's a violent sport and tempers flair, things are gonna happen.

100% spot on, couldn't have said it better myself, you are a beautiful human being and don't you ever change.

As if some people have never played a damn sport before. Things get heated, people get mad. Doesn't have anything to do with class.

At least Paqette wasn't a fugazi(fake) like Brendan Smith lol, I honestly give him 'props'as the young crowd would say, although I do wish the refs didn't break up the possible scrap between the two at the end.

...amigo, I hate Chara & the Bruins, but that's not true; Paquette started it all, tried to act tough against the biggest guy in the League, and got his head caved in for it...twice...don't play the Bruins game if you don't want the Bruins to respond...

Wow well said. They could have just as easily let chara skate away but paq decided to be tough. Bad move. Twice.

This should have been a Bruins power play---2 minutes each for roughing and Cedric Pacquette with the extra minor for the dive. As for Pacquette...maybe next time, he won't bite off more than he can chew.

Marchands quotes per Amalie Benjamin:

"I don't know what that kid was thinking. You don't mess with Zee. ... "

"He must have forgot we play them three more times. Hopefully he'll be sent down by then for his sake."


Downright hilarious.

That was an absolute bonehead play by Pacquette. I'd have benched him for the rest of the game for lack of a brain.

Somewhere in the middle
Cooke does this to Weber and Weber responds: Bad guy = Cooke

Pacqette does this to Chara & Chara responds: Bad guy = Chara

...would have been the safest thing for him, as well...they may want to sit him the next couple times they play each other...of course, Chara going up to the pressbox to say hi wouldn't shock me too much...:laugh:

Hockey isn't played in tutu's, that's not a threat, that's the game. Paquette has put a target on his back with his antics. Stay so damn nancy.

Maybe your aged dinosaur has been defensemen shouldn't keep dropping the gloves against up and coming prospects.

Maybe your phenomenons shouldn't try to take liberties with Chara. The guy would probably be able to nuke their ass even with both hands tied behind his back.
Yes, Chara ageing is a problem for us. Especially due to the fact that we just don't do this tanking thing like you guys do every few years. But with Hamilton, I think we will be just fine.

We are an original six team. We have been in the playoffs and won a decent amount of cups. I expect that to continue. We are here to stay.

...

To conclude, I believe Paquette is one lucky individual. He tried his best to be destroyed tonight, if he didn't smarten up and run for the hills every time Chara meant business (the first time he dropped like he had been shot... The second time he was saved by the ref...), things would have been much worse. I hope for him that he won't try anything as moronic as he did tonight.

So what are you saying exactly?

I guess he's saying that teams in the cap era can't stay contenders/elite forever, which is breaking news to everyone else. He also seems to be saying that the team he roots for (whichever that may be) has always been and always will be elite and relevant and great.

Judging from the fact that he's had his jimmies severely rustled by this thread, it's safe to wager he roots for a team that was founded, within his lifetime (or maybe not, if he's under 20 or so), where it's 75 degrees in January.

Did the good ole soccer thing. Wrong sport, Paquette!

Embarrassing Chara, chasing kids down like that.

The fear is strong in Paquette in this sequence. Thank God he must have triggered some fathering instinct in the referee! I especially love the spin away move, he was probably screaming "mommyyyyyyyy"... :laugh:

So many things wrong with this post.

Marchand basically warns him to make himself a healthy scratch because HE WILL be held accountable for wasting a top 10 defenseman's time in this manner and then running and hiding, or diving (literally) for safety.

Another guy who needs to watch himself is Brown.

No-name players need to stick to themselves, not go after Chara's and Krejci's of the NHL. Otherwise they won't be in the league for very long.

By the way, calling OUR team a joke from top to bottom is hilarious. Nice one.
