duclair is taller than marchand, and is upright with his arm bracing. if Marchand doesn't stick his arms up, its shoulder on shoulder, and likely Duclair falls to the side. 

the reason he contacts the head is because he jumps up, and puts both his arms towards Duclairs head. 

Yet it was a knee injury....huh, go figure.

it was a knee injury because the closeline caused him to violently buckle backwards.

No discipline for Marchand. With his history, that speaks volumes about what the league thought of it. Out today against the Hawks, UBI.

The league disagrees with you, as do I.

Now that we're into a new month, it's once again time to see another fine being paid by Marchand.

I had a feeling there would be a thread update when I saw the tweet about it earlier today.

[IPv6Freely 2094]

It's not my fault he does stupid things.

It was funny listening to Ferraro trying to explain how he beleived it was a "barely" legal hit. I do think if Carrier didn't straighten up a little before contact that Doughty would have gone thru his shoulder.

[IPv6Freely 2094]

Why was it funny? I think he's right. 

[chippa13 1844]

It was his "barely grazes the 8 on the sleeve" that I found hilarious. Had he just mentioned how Carrier started to straighten to try and jump inside the contact then he would have sounded intelligent. The way Ferraro stammered through his explanation further cemented my lack of respect for his abilities as a quality analyst.

Looks like Kadri might be asked to miss a couple after that hit on Wingels.

[chippa13 1844]

Here is the Kadri hit in question:

 

[chippa13 1844]

Doughty's game really hurt the Kings last night. Kadri fot 3 for his hit on Wingels so that will hurt the Leafs defensively.

So I'm sure this thread will be flooded with cries to lock up Hedman for his cup check on Hischier. Wait, Hedman isn't a Bruins..........nevermind.

Morrissey cross check, I say he sits 5 but it’ll likely be 3 because playoffs

You sound like us Flyers fans haha. Some teams are always under the microscope while others tend to be footnotes.

Some teams also have players who are being fined or suspended on a monthly basis.

There’s no particular Bruins hatred here. The only reason Marchand comes up multiple times in these threads is because he gets multiple fine/suspensions every year, on top of the borderline cases, which is topical for the supplemental discipline thread, since that is supplemental discipline. If the wings had players that continually ended up on those lists, I’d bring them up too. I tend to stay fairly objective in my views on such matters. 

With Marchand in particular, it’s particularly noteworthy due to the fact that he’s a fantastic player I’d otherwise really enjoy, and every absense of his from his teams roster impacts the team more than say someone like Witkowski missing games  that he could’ve been a healthy scratch anyways. Some suspensions just aren’t as noteworthy, even if equally warranted

[chippa13 1844]

Morrissey to miss 1 game for the Staal crosscheck.

Fair enough. I just think that attention should be consistent that's all. If the play is dirty, call that player out. Doesn't matter his history or the logo he dons on his sweater.

Sure and most of us generally do. Of course I’m not going to post something I didn’t see or know about though.

Or was perpetrated by a Leaf?
