Brad Marchand decks Scott Gomez

[hotkigandstuff]

did gomez score...no

[gohabs1119]

Does Marchand have one clean hit in his repertoire?

[TYthemShoes]

i love the bruins and marchand is a good player. BUT i feel like he is too afraid of big hits up front thats why he always ducks when people are hustling towards him. thats what keeps getting his ass in trouble

[bruinsbobbyorrhockey]

haha look who won the cup idiot

[3kaden]

Remember that time Scott Gomez scored a goal? I don't

[nateharold1]

@3kaden lol

[Killaton501]

scott gomez is horrible

[Acesfull27]

I would expect nothing less from Marchand, the guy has proven over and over again he is all about trying to injure people

[skill4ev]

lol such a high hit, this kid needs to get his ass kicked to be shown where he belongs

[shortthemkts]

typical marchant and bruins hockey.

suspended over and over - one day someone is going to crush the rat

[NHLfan96]

@shortthemkts marchanD. with a D. One day someone will teach you to spell

[BostonDudeGuy]

a lil dirty but who cares 6-0 win

[SuperNoodles8]

i love how scott gomez gets right up. what a great player

[BruinsBest]

The Montreal Police is investigating this probably.. haha!

[thetown123456789]

@likespainball exactly!! couldn't say it better myself

[ProSportsBrief]

i give props to gomez for getting up, id be crying like a pussy

[superwren]

How can anyone say that is a clean hit? He explodes into Gomez's face and throat. That's a high, dirty hit. Comments about it being a rough tough sport don't justify dirty hits.

[NHLfan96]

@superwren I gotta say, your wording is iffy. Explodes into his face and throat? Comments about it being a rough sport dont justify sexual references

[44airsoftman]

Love the bruins but marchad is cheap

[uhmugud]

Marchand is a TANK!

[GoonSquad617]

good. fuck gomez

[MrOverkill973]

worth it in any circumstance

[mfornelos]

Clean hit, to the chest

[jusbefriends]

I don't see any penalty here..?

[JamesP1212]

7 Canadians fans disliked this

[xploddan]

Give the refs suspensions/fines for bad calls. Gotta start having some liability going the other way.

[str8rippon]

nhl is starting to become the nfl. there is no open ice hits because you get sheriff shanny up your ass

[mike62649]

haha look at the score

[GiancarloG255]

@mike62649 Lmao ! 

[202Redwings]

he went hands to the face and got a penalty? Usually when a clean hit occurs, the Refs won't call a penalty. Or maybe I'm crazy...

[jetshockey5]

Scott giveaway Gomez. Bahah stupid fuckin canadiens gave him 7 mil a year and he's gone. He's done nothing such a fuckin overrated player he's trash. Yahhh bruinss

[SuperLuigiJoe]

illegal or not he smashed him good

[ReallyRandomRoska]

I'm a Bruins fan, and to be honest, it's an illegal hit because he left his feet. If he were taller, he wouldn't have to and he could make better, clean hits, but..

[NHLArchive]

@ReallyRandomRoska you can leave your feet on a hit.

[ReallyRandomRoska]

You can? I've always been under the impression that you couldn't...

[NHLArchive]

@ReallyRandomRoska well it is new-age fans like you who don't know anything about hockey that I am annoyed by

[NHLArchive]

@ReallyRandomRoska well it is new-age fans like you who don't know anything about hockey that I am annoyed by

[vFuhMaZ]

@NHLArchive your a fucking idiot you cant leave your feet ya dick head fuck

[NHLArchive]

@vFuhMaZ yes you can, and your confidence is hilarious, too bad your parents were siblings.

[vFuhMaZ]

@NHLArchive no you cant and wtf is up with you and calling people inbreeds seems to me your hideing something you red neck fagot read the rules and play hockey before you state them theres a rule completely devoted to not leaving your feet

[NHLArchive]

@vFuhMaZ you are the faggot, there is no rule that states you can't leave you feet after contact. You really are an inbreed.

[vFuhMaZ]

@NHLArchive lol alright i guess u no everything ill let you think that bye

[NHLArchive]

@vFuhMaZ i don't, but I have a much higher intelligence level than you

[NHLBruinsFan2011]

i don't care if that was a penalty, Gomez got what he's deserved throughout his entire NHL career...GREAT hit by Marchand!

[ongleincarner]

Skates left ice. Illegal hit. Good call by refs. No wonder this video was uploaded by a bruins fan.

[NHLArchive]

@ongleincarner im not a bruins fan, you inbreed, in fact I like both teams equally

[17bruins91]

I'm a Bruins fan but that is a penalty. That was a high hit. Good call by the refs.

[shinnym8]

hahaha

[dieu1jesus2manu3]

yeah clean hit look at the f*k hand... subban hit him with the back a*hole

[tboneduf]

Marchand gets called for a CLEAN hit but the Habs player who crosschecks him TWICE GETS NOTHING?

[D4W3701]

haha 6-0 bruins and its only the 3rd period

[projectpokey]

Stunning the cowards from Montreal do nothing about it, was the game too close to risk a penalty? Vintage pussy Habs......GO BRUINS

[fisher0413]

montreal played a great game here eh?



[BruinsWinTheCup]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BRUINSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Pman1274]

HABS SUCK!!!!!!! Go bruins

[kaloupo]

woah still using the 911 joke??pathetic

[bruinshockey47]

unreal hit

[neely08]

marchand is the guy with the matches

[atomictaco94]

CALL 911!

[DarthWenus]

I hope the people of montreal aren't clogging up the police lines again.

[buddhistgangstamonk]

Oh shit, I like montreal and all, and first 10 second i thought it was an elbow, but then when they replayed it, you can see it's a clean shoulder hit, come on gomez u gotta keep your head up

[ihateobamapiss0nhim]

Haha habs fan's are jokes. That was not a dirty hit it was clean. He should have kept his head up. Why don't you habs fans call the cop's again or protest or have another riot. You guys are good at that.

[swalte6325]

Beautiful hit.

[joepaco1]

did you idiots not see all the blood Gomez had on his face after that head shot ? If you hit a guy in the head, it's not clean. I'm sure even a Bruins fan can understand that concept, it's not that complicated.

Brad Marchand is going to have a bounty on his head way before Subban does. He's the worst yapper out there because he knows he has bigger guys to back him up.

[tboneduf]

@joepaco1 Watch the video again Marchands head hits Gomez not his arms.What are the Habs going to do get revenge like they did against Chara?How did that work?Oh yeah he destroyed every Hab that came near him not one Hab stepped up to face him and got 3 assist.Wow the Habs taught him

[joepaco1]

@tboneduf the only way the Habs will get payback is by wining vs. you guys in the play-offs. Just like we did the last time one of your big buffoons try to kill one of our players: Kyle Mclaren on Zednik. You remember how that series finished after the hit ? Nobody expected our players to goon it up and get physical revenge on Chara. It's not our style. In fact , nobody in the league can take Chara on , so it wasn't going to change for this one game.

[tboneduf]

@joepaco1 First you have to actually make the playoffs

[tboneduf]

@joepaco1 Go to 32 seconds in and you see Marchands head hit Gomez that is why Marchand is stunned after

[MLbruinTT]

That was a clean hit! Stop bitchin about the Bruin's out hitting the Canadiens and how Chara hurt your poor little rookie. Let it go! its hockey! Its a rough sport you dumb asses

[likespaintball]

@MLbruinTT im not a fan of any of the teams but it was a clear head shot and nothing marchand does is clean, NOTHING. was the elbow to the head of umburger from behind clean, was the slew foot on niskanen yesterday clean, was the multiple punches to the head of sedin clean, was the closeline to the head of a vancouver player and than dumping sedin after the whistle clean. NO nothing he says or does is clean. he is the definition of a DIRTBAG.

[MyNameIsDuffmarn]

@likespaintball quit whining its hockey, and theres other dirty players stop acting like a bitch and grow a pair

[likespaintball]

@MyNameIsDuffmarn Marchand is the one who needs to grow a pair. The only time he hits someone is with his elbow or to the head and than when the possoing team confronts him he becomes a bitch and either turtles or runs. All he does is dirty hits, elbows, slew foots the list goes on and on and on and i'd be fine with him being a dirty bitch but only if he was willing to pay the consequences for what he did but instead he Bitches out every single time. Marchand is a COWARD and needs a pair.

[canzonePerLei]

@MLbruinTT  OK its hockey so stop complaining about romes hit on horton or subbans hit on marchand

[jiamonx2]

@MLbruinTT shoulder to head, yeap completely clean

[MyNameIsDuffmarn]

@jiamonx2 shoudler to head isnt exactly illegal.. you know the shoudler is right below your neck.. stupid

[jiamonx2]

@MyNameIsDuffmarn so my sentence reads shoulder is above the neck?

[MyNameIsDuffmarn]

@jiamonx2 no i was saying the shoulder is almost level with the head.. dont be stupid

[jiamonx2]

@MyNameIsDuffmarn read syaredic1's comment

[DHHSHOCKEY10]

@MLbruinTT have some respect for the kid and his family you fucking dirt bag

[MLbruinTT]

@DHHSHOCKEY10 He's not hurt is he? No, so i'm pretty sure him and his family are fine.

[syaredic1]

@MLbruinTT it was clean so that's why he got a penalty for hitting him in the head. God I hate how uneducated Boston fans are. 

[MikailR1995]

@syaredic1 Homo

[MikailR1995]

@syaredic1 Douche Bag

[MikailR1995]

@syaredic1 Queer 

[MikailR1995]

@syaredic1 Faggot

[MikailR1995]

@syaredic1 Don't use God's name in vain!

[syaredic1]

@MikailR1995 you must be one of those intelligent bruins fans

[NHLfan96]

@syaredic1 Intelligent fans. If only Montreal had any. WHAT? HE DOVE AND NO CALL? WHAT ARE WE PAYING YOU FOR REF? BOOOOOO

[syaredic1]

@NHLfan96 thanks for proving my point lol. An unintelligent fan with no comeback will just say something stupid like "they pay the refs". Grow up and think of something better, nobody does that lmao.

ps. I'm guessing the "96" in your name stands for your birth year because only someone as immature as a 15 year old would comment about words that sound sexual....

[NHLfan96]

@syaredic1 16... nice math. But im dumb... :)

Also, only someone stupid wouldnt see the refs pathetic officiating night in and night out in Montreal.

[Hatchwork]

@NHLfan96 Yeah and Nathan Horton dove when Aaron Rome hit him. You're a fucking genius, go back to Harvard.

[NHLfan96]

@Hatchwork Wasnt calling that a dive, just Montreals play style in general. If you dont see them diving, you dont watch their games

[syaredic1]

@MikailR1995 i can tell by you childish comments lol

[BruinsFan2347]

@syaredic1 actually, he got him in the chest....

[syaredic1]

@BruinsFan2347 pause the video at 0:32, its in the head

[BruinsFan2347]

@syaredic1 kind of hard to tell with that angle, it looks like the side of his head goes in to Gomez's face, but other than that it looks like his shoulder (aka the dangerous part of the hit) goes into the shoulder/chest area of Gomez, so I guess I'd call this boarderline, could go either way.

[MikailR1995]

@MLbruinTT Yeah!

[straplet]

CALL THE POLICE!!!

Clean hit

[Cheesiethecheese]

MONTREAL FANS WHY ARE WE NOT PROTESTING THIS!? WE NEED IMMEDIATE ACTION, SOMEONE CALL THE POLICE AND WE WILL ALL MEET AT THE NHL HEADQUARTERS!

[desdrumhead]

i think they are going to criminally investigate that hit

[zzzjimbozzz19]

good hit habs are such pussies

[kellyjplante71]

wtf bullshit

[coachhiggs]

Nothing but a clean hit. Didn't even touch the head. Shouldn't even have been a penalty.

[SoIceyNorth]

Marchand is a little bitch he needs to get his ass whooped!

[nivz2]

tired of people saying, oh it's high, it's high.. like.. is everyone supposed to bend so they their heads are under the opponents when they hit? next thing u kno they start calling head shots on the person receiving the hit cause they guy throwing it had his head in his chest. it wasn't high, ur head is attached to ur body so if u make contact with the body obviously your head has a high chance of being hit too. this wasn't a bit high, it wasn't cheap, it was perfectly clean.

[tboneduf]

Here we go another reason for Habs fans to cry....I am actually suprised they didnt call the cops on that hit too

[hillbillymoment9]

Clean hit. I mean seriously everytime somone gets hit now its needs to be reviewed. Thier turing hockey into frigan flag football for fucks sake. Let them play!

[breathingreflection]

It certainly wasn't a blindside hit. Hence the roughing minor instead of the major and ejection.

[twitchyfingers]

Clean, open ice hit, just a little high but "head shot" was actually a matter of two heads smashing together... Slow it down, they contact face to face. Gomez's nose is probably broken (judging by the amount of blood on him after the fact) and Marchand's cheek was bright red when he was sitting in the box, and that wasn't for being winded or flush. Gomez was no worse for wear, stayed on the ice for the next two shifts with a bloody nose.

[THUNDERBAYxBOMBSQUAD]

judging by bostons past, he could have been trying to take off his head. and when a team is up 6-0, its really pussy when your out there trying to injure other players.

[TheBruinsFan17]

BULLSHIT call. clean clean clean.

[Dracone12]

If he did make head contact, it was combined with body contact. You'd rather see him not go so high but it worked out fine. Also, we won. Just thought I'd pointlessly remind everyone of that.

[MarcusFindlay14]

It would have been even funnier if he went offside :P

[Angus53182]

Shoulder on shoulder face on face the visor is what did the damage.

[NHLArchive]

And so you inbreed fucks know I am NOT a bruins fan, if subban did the same exact thing I would have the same stance so quit making reply insinuating that i am a bruins fan

[disfiguration]

@NHLArchive you can't spell "inbred" yet you decide to use the comment feature. Get a fucking education.

[oichakdeyphatay]

Hit was clean....Montreal needs to stop complaining and bitching all the time it's getting annoying.

[Jmacdizzle42]

when a REAL hockey player goes in for a hit they dont raise their hands in the air to hit the guys face...Machand=Sackville trash. I hope he gets aids from don cherry and dies

[SynysterA7X14]

@Jmacdizzle42 You sir will also need to call the Montreal police to report a rape, it was at the TD Garden at around 7pm and the fugitives were dressed in BLACK AND YELLOW. A 13 year old can defend the Canadiens better than you so just give up and stop trying to convince people you know what you're talking about.

[Wormdog84]

@Jmacdizzle42 I thought he already got aids from your mom

[Wormdog84]

i was there!!!!!!!!! call 911 bitches

[egogoalie42]

Is 'head contact' a penalty? I know it is in USA Hockey and IIHF, but I'm not sure about the NHL. If it's not, it's only a matter of time.

[NHLArchive]

@egogoalie42 why should head contact be a penalty? most of the time it is incidental, and if it isn't there is a vast array of penalties to take care of it

[MarcusFindlay14]

@NHLArchive there are a lot of incidental penalties like tripping some people dont mean to but it happens.

[holobalobalo]

@NHLArchive Yes, head contact is a penalty. The league has been cracking down on head-hits and hits from behind recently.

Concussions are the biggest reason. For example Crosby was out half of last season and will be out for (at least) the first part of this season due to a concussion caused by a hit to the head during the winter classic. He wasn't the first and won't be the last; hits to the head are extremely dangerous in hockey.

[jmiller7742]

@holobalobalo

no no no...head contact is a penalty if it's from the blindside. this has been repeated OVER AND OVER again. if you want to tell me that this was a blindside headshot, then you really need to accept you'll never be able to watch the game objectively. this wasn't a penalty.

[holobalobalo]

@jmiller7742 I never said that this should have been a penalty, just saying that I think head hits should be illegal since WAY too many players are getting long-term concussions and other head-hit related injuries.

But yeah I looked more into the rule and it looks like you're right; at this point only blindsided head hits are a penalty.

[StrikerBwF]

Beautiful hit

[meep316]

Perfect hit. Call the cops you cunts.

[jipmip2332]

Obvious hit to the head how is that a joke of a call

[NHLArchive]

@jipmip2332 hits to the head aren't penalties, it was just a normal hit

[jipmip2332]

@NHLArchive

Your kinda right. Hits to the head arent penalties all the time, they are often suspension (unless it was from a bruin to a hab) are you joking... come on man ofcourse a hit to the head is a penalty!! thats what they are trying to remove from the game you know that!

[NHLArchive]

@jipmip2332 blindside hits to the head, not north-south hits, you don't even know the rules of hockey why are you arguing

[jipmip2332]

@NHLArchive

Are you telling me the palm of my hand is allowed to make contact with someones face and its not a penalty

[NHLArchive]

@jipmip2332 that isn't what occurred here so it is irrelevant, if you hit a guy going north-south and don't elbow, blindside, high stick, pucnh, or charge someone it is a legal hit.

[jipmip2332]

@NHLArchive

Yes it is, it is a legal hit unless it is to the fucking head

[JerOutlaw]

@jipmip2332 it was clean it so fucking deal with it

[mafiaboi89]

@NHLArchive actually since last year's GM meeting, every hit that targets the head is illegal. It wasn't the case last year (Cooke/Savard, RIchard/Booth, etc.) but that changed. That's why the BOSTON commentator said "Now what we need to know is was the primary point of contact the head." Anytime a player hits the HEAD is illegal now, and it should be it's very dangerous and with Bergeron and Savard, I'd expect a Boston fan to agree with me.

[dpm1057]

@mafiaboi89 as A Boston fan I do agree. That video certainly warrants a review by the league. But there is more to the rule 48 than just making contact with the head. Where Gomez and Marchand hit him from the front, the arguments of Blind Side and Helpless Position go out the window. You can't claim to be in a helpless position at center ice, when you just carried the puck for the lat 35 feet or so.

So it will come down to did Marchand TARGET the head.

[razorwirexo]

call the fuzz! bahahaa.

[SynysterA7X14]

Someone call the Montreal police

[Rsd79]

@SynysterA7X14

hahahhaha, call 911 because Gomez just got assaulted by Marchand.

[zzzjimbozzz19]

@SynysterA7X14 hahaha ya really habs fans are fuckin queer

[40TuukkaTime]

@SynysterA7X14 lol!!

[GrayLeader2184]

A Children of Bodom quote sums up my thoughts on the Canadiens:

"Are You Dead Yet?"

[HabsFanTom]

Obviously the hit was high, he was leaking like crazy lmao

[NHLArchive]

@HabsFanTom it wasn't illegal though

[HabsFanTom]

@NHLArchive it kind of looked like it was head on head but I can't really tell

[NHLArchive]

@HabsFanTom head on head isn't a penalty

[HabsFanTom]

@NHLArchive Indeed.

[ViacomFailsAtLife]

hell yeah fuck up that alaskan bitch! Montreal got banged up the ass tonight and they liked it.

[courtyard70]

borderline. he clearly reaches for his head.

[darkphoenix2]

@courtyard70 yeah I can read his mind and that's CLEARLY what he was trying to do

CLEARLY
