In the Bruins' game against the Philadelphia Flyers, captain Brad Marchand received a controversial penalty after he threw a temper tantrum to a referee.
Marchand was sent to the box for two-minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct. He completely lashed out on a ref who failed to call a dangerous hit from Flyers' Erik Johnson.
Bruins' captain Brad Marchand gets a two-minute penalty for throwing a temper tantrum at a referee from the bench.
Marchand got on the receiving end of a dirty knee-on-knee hit by Erik Johnson and remained on the ice for a few seconds before returning to the bench. After he found his senses back, he started to scream at the referee for not calling a penalty on the hit.
Here's how it happened:
"Brad Marchand takes a dangerous knee on knee hit from Erik Johnson, chews out the refs for not calling anything, and gets 2 minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct.
As Jack says in the clip, this type of hit ends careers. Don't blame Marchand for losing his cool here."
