Bruins Network calls out the Boston Bruins after allowing Sam Bennett to plow Joonas Korpisalo
The Boston Bruins and Florida Panthers have a recent history since the Cats have knocked the Bruins out of the playoffs the last two seasons.
In that timeframe, it's given the teams enough hatred developed between the two for some indiscriminate brutalities to break out on the ice.
One constant offender is the Panthers Center, Sam Bennett would anger the Bruins by running over or "trucking Joonas Korpisalo.
That warrants immediate retaliation by anyone who espouses "the code" or who believes in it.
Lohrei and the other Bruins on ice would engage in a scum after Bennett would egregiously run over Korpisalo after the Rodrigues goal.
It all happened behind the Bruin's net, where the incident occurred.
The scrum would continue for a few minutes, but no major retribution would happen, as multiple players and referees would stop it from escalating.
Which arguably is even more egregious by the referees.
In this rivalry, this isn't the only time Sam Bennett has acted recklessly when he sucker punched Captain Brad Marchand last season.
Bennett would receive largesse from the NHL referees as he received only a 2-minute minor for roughing.
While he has a history of aggression with the Bruins, often unwarranted and unjust.
When will George Parros and the Department of Player Safety address the concerns we have regarding Bennett? If no one can retaliate, it is up to the DOPS to police the ice, and sometimes they just don't have the best track record.
