Jack Edwards rips apart officials on social media following the Bruins third game of the season
Former Boston Bruins commentator Jack Edwards is already ripping the officials on social media in just the third game of the season for the Boston Bruins.
Jack Edwards is no longer apart of the Boston Bruins broadcast team, but that hasn't stopped him from letting officials know how he really feels.
During the Boston Bruins home opener against the Montreal Canadiens Jack Edwards ranted on social media about how he felt regarding the leagues officials.
Jack Edwards took to Reddit's platform to express how he felt regarding the officiating during the home opener game, and it was focused on the no goal call off of a shot from Bruins defenseman Hampus Lindholm, that went to a review and was called back.
"So Primeau thrusts off his line and Brazeau goes to inside ice," wrote Edwards on Reddit. "If you draw a line to the sky from the crease, the contact comes outside the crease. Next goal Montreal is going to appeal that a Bruin had a garlic garnish on his pregame and Primeau couldn't do his job because of the Bruin's bad breath."
The play in question:
During the same game he also went on about a call that was made against Nikita Zadorov:
"AND MONTREAL GETS ANOTHER CALL BECAUSE ZADOROV DID HIS JOB!" wrote Edwards in capital letters.
Even after being retired, Jack Edwards has still been vocal on social media, letting the league know how he still feels regarding the officiating.
The Boston Bruins did go on to win this game, beating the Montreal Canadiens 6-4, but almost blew the lead in the third period. Jeremy Swayman had some timely saves for the Boston Bruins even though he did not play up to expectations.
