David Backes comes across the middle and lays his shoulder into Blake Coleman’s face. Backes gets two minutes for an illegal check to the head.

Backes took lessons from the weasel. Can't stand dirty hockey. Play hockey for what your getting paid for. We don't want your crappy play
Getting him back for the spear to the neck of Marchand. Still really bad hit
Let's see how the wheel lands on this one.
He’s lucky he didn’t seriously hurt Coleman otherwise that would make his suspension much severe if he is getting suspended which he might ….. which he should.
Suspended.
I wanna hear Boston’s announcers on the hit
a Bruin? Doing something dirty? I don't believe it
I'm going to be so mad if Backes doesn't get suspended simply because of the fact that Karlsson threw half this hit and somehow got 2 games.
If he misses the classic I really hope they call up Bjork
It's wonderful how the rest of the team does absolutely nothing about it…
Should start implementing million dollar fines. See how careful people become when it comes to these types of hits. Or season long suspensions. Unpaid of course.
Should get a game suspension I guess but since its a boston bruin he'll probably get 3
Nothing to see here, Bruins doing usual Bruins things..
Damn. Big Backes fan from STL. But hell no won't defend that hit.
i like how they mashup the radio calls to curb jack edwards bias.
Worse then Wilson’s hit that got him 20 games
Is the nhl turning into the nfl? Bye bye hockey hits
Jack Edwards thinks Coleman should be suspended for putting his face in Backes' elbow.
Wow, a bruin with a dirty cheapshot? Who would've thought that?
As opposed to those legal checks to the head
Anything East West is a fine or suspension. Just really no need for that…type of dirty hockey
And 3 games
Good thing there's no fights anymore so we get to see hits like this weekly. "👍"
Dirty hit. Feel bad for Coleman
Eye for a eye…everyone hates this Backes hit but remeber the first period…oh right Coleman (the guy that got hit) slashed Marchand is the throat…NEWS ALERT that's dirtier than that hit to Coleman! Suck it up people….you slash a guy in the throat suspect a target on your back.
Coleman was involved in two dirty plays in that game it seems.
Did the edit out Jack Edwards claiming it was a clean hockey hit?
Can’t do that.
Wait there's legal hits to the head? 🤔
He leaned into it.
3 games just announced
Should be suspended for the spear on marchand if Backes gets 3 games for a hit to a player who returned the same game and scored at the end then he should get suspended for spearing a player who did not practice
I don’t know it really didn’t look intentional and the spear didn’t either but it was on Marchand so who cares
What? No response? That’s weird. Cmon Devils, protect your teammates.
wow more like leafsnet
Actually hate bostons commentators
David Backes is such a bum. Always has been.
That's the dirty Boston for ya. Doesnt surprise me
Jack Edwards only word: Yep!
Oh what a surprise!!! A dirty hit by a dirty dog bruin!! #banthebruinfranchise!!
Backes whining about the Sundqvist hit last night is laughable. Maybe he needs to be reminded of all the illegal headshots he's delivered in his career.
Backes is garbage! Trash. Junk
