Kelly Hrudey is currently ripping into Vitek Vanecek for getting injured.
He's an idiot...I thought it was ridiculous. Guess he never owned a groin or muscle..and the refs sure love the Bruins. One play Marchand was totally hooking and nothing.
 
That was bringing back flashbacks.  Boston still gets away with absolutely everything

Kadri definitely gets suspended for doing what Lauzon did to Ovi.

Kadri also gets suspended for Ovechkin's launch at the Bruin player in the first few minutes of the game.

Charge. He glided into him. Nice hit.

The definition of charging, which admittedly is fairly vague, is more about the distance travelled to make the hit. Look at where Wilson is where he starts skating.

Yup it's vague on the distance. Oh well wasn't far enough according to the refs. Either way I thought it was great. Too bad it wasn't on Marchand.

If that?s not a charge, there?s no such thing as charging.

It's almost literally the entire width of the ice.

Yup. Can't come across the ice much more than Wilson did there.

Charging, as defined in the rulebook:

Charging shall mean that the actions of a player or goalkeeper who, as a result of distance traveled, shall violently check and opponent in any manner. A "charge" may be the result of a check into the boards, into the goal frame or in open ice.

Large distance traveled? Check.
Violent check? Check.

It's charging.
