  1. Yeah so I guess Marchand can’t afford twitter blue cause he paid off the refs! Accidental hit my ass

  2. I hadn’t seen the bruins play very much this year but am now convinced the reason they top the league must be marchand giving the officials handjobs in the intermissions

  3. Gooning it up, huh? Guys are literally at the top of the league, and they got nothing better to do but just pretend this is Slapshot.

  4. Kinda won’t mind when the bruins win it all in the short term future, as it will make it more satisfying grinding them down and beating them the first play offs we’re back with a rebuilt team.

  5. Man what is up with these big babies tonight jesus just move on and stop being such little bitches. It’s a damn shame Xhekaj and Anderson aren’t in the lineup. If the refs don’t call both Marchand and McAvoy on that play this game deserves to get out of hand.

  6. This is likely because Anderson and Xhekaj are out. No offense to Pezz, but I’d take either one of the other guys for a fight.

  7. Lmao total joke. Bruins getting rolled all period, their “stars” both commit textbook interference within 30s and nothing 😅

  8. Xhekaj getting injured was a real downer on the mojo of the club. I hope he goes full out on conditioning in the Summer and fights less next year but intimidates more.
