Oh, a two-hander after play was over. Well, Backstrom deserves it then and we haven't seen that from the Bs all series long. :rolleyes:

Backstrom should have done it with 1 second remaining. Then he would only have been fined $5.

Hunter probably told Nik to give the closest Bruin he could find the "Turgeon treatment"

:L

Not the finest moment in Caps' history.... errr... I mean, what is that? A detergent or something?

Malkin in one of the Finals a few years ago had his match penalty rescinded. It's pretty common. The league tends to differentiate between a player who goes a little overboard in a late scrum (Malkin's case) vs. somebody who goes buckwild to "send a message" (Adams the other night).

Which category did Backstrom fall under? Didn't see it but I'd imagine that former.

Backstrom is a dirty bastard ALWAYS taking a cheap shot late in a game, after the whistle, etc. The league needs to send a message to all the dirty, chippy Swedes in the league that this will not be tolerated in North America! "Those people" have ruined the game for far too long.

(PS - I didn't actually see it either. Sorry.)

Here it is...


Not good. But not different from what we see a Bruin do several times every game. Lucic was handing out cheap shots like they were fucking pancakes tonight.

In playoff hockey, that is a hockey play. I bet it gets rescinded and the league pays Backstrom $2500 as a reverse fine for his troubles.

They should also award Dale Hunter 10 grand for keeping the tv audience engaged right until the end of the game...

It'll be rescinded.

I'm gonna have 10 grand soon. This year's playoff is going to build more evidence for my class action against the Caps for intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Time to put on my neck pad...
