Underrated one is the comeback against Boston in 2011 when Patioread shoved Chara at the end causing the meathead to try and murder him a few months later.
Chara probably didn't mean to break his neck, but the optics were horrific.
The Habs were giving bruins fits all year, and this was a statement game for Boston to show that they can handle montreal. Instead, Montreal builds a 4-0 lead in this game, and now pacioretty has caught chara flat footed and is off to the races if not for chara's shove into the stantion.
I think the situation pretty much writes itself that chara was extremely frustrated with their inability to handle the Habs all year, and he made a stupid decision with some terrible consequences. Patch is probably really lucky that it wasn't even worse.
When chara is saying that he didn't mean to do it, I think he's saying I didn't mean to break his neck (which i would believe), but I have a hard time believing that he didn't mean to shove him like that out of sheer frustration.
If the bruins had their way with Montreal that year, and it's 4-0 Boston, instead of 4-0 Montreal in this particular game, I'm certain chara makes a different play on pacioretty in that moment.
