One player from the Boston Bruins may be facing further punishment from the NHL after a high hit against the Panthers in game two.
Will He Hear From Player Safety?
The referees lost all control of the game between Boston and Florida, late in the third period, and the tipping point was a questionable hit from Tomas Nosek on Eric Staal. See below:
This came the same day that Maple Leafs' forward Michael Bunting was given a three-game suspension for the following hit on Lightning defenseman Erik Cernak.
Which led to the Panthers' broadcast on Bally Sports immediately calling for the same discipline for Nosek.
And they weren't the only ones that think so. Check out some of the reactions on Twitter:
