MUST-SEE: Haula mic'd up after almost fumbling his penalty shot opporunity
The Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens had another hard-fought battle in a long line of the rivalry on Sunday night. The Bruins were able to come out on top 5-3 with an empty-net goal from captain Patrice Bergeron.
Although the game was already a close one, it could have been a lot closer had Erik Haula actually blown his penalty shot opportunity. Re-live the almost embarrassing moment here:
Obviously, the officials determined that the play was legal, and Haula's goal stood for the 2-0 Bruins lead.
For Boston fans, it brings back the memories of Brad Marchand's blunder in the shootout against the Philadelphia Flyers back in January of 2020. Thankfully Haula didn't touch the puck before skating past it, but that didn't stop his teammates from getting a good chuckle at his expense.
Cameras and microphones for the Bruins' "Behind the B" segment caught the mic'd up moment of Erik Haula and his teammates on the bench after the play. Watch and listen to the clip here:
