Pat Maroon hit Jake McCabe into the boards in overtime. There was no penalty on the play. Should there have been? Tough Call will be reviewing the incident. Have your say!
I understand if the refs let a bit more go in ot in the playoffs (like soft hooks and holds) but this is clearly a late hit from behind on the numbers into the boards. How these are nhl refs is insane.
Cheap hit from an irrelevant goon. He should have been ejected I guess for player safety….not that him playing ever affects the out come on the score board..
I hate how in Overtime the refs just stop doing their job. There were plenty of missed calls on both teams that overtime and the refs just stayed out of it. I understand how they don't want to be blamed for a team winning or loosing but do your job.
So how does Lafferty get fined for crosschecking, but not Maroon for this hit? I'm not gonna argue Lafferty's fine, but if you're going to fine him, you have to fine Maroon too because of how blatant/dangerous this is.

That's on the numbers, and his head is put into the boards… 5 and a suspension.
Pat the Goon….
ahhh, playoffs time, when refs are incredibly inconsistent
Maroon the goon.
thats playoff hockey
5 min major + 10
No comments on how Point got hit earlier…
Boarding all day
Tough Call My Ass!!!!! Moron Should be Suspended!!!https://youtu.be/AqzliyUyoG8
The nhl should be reviewing this hit for sure it was definitively an attempt to injure
Very dangerous. No doubt. To allow it clearly shows the NHL is not serious. Corrupt referee.
Dirrrrrtrty
That’s a missed boarding call
Dirty hit he didn’t see it coming

Hit from behind didn’t try to avoid it at all and a bit late
Suspension worthy
Late hit. Has time to stop. From behind. Should be a major penalty and 1 game suspension.
Suspension needed for that Cliffard for Leafs got suspended for exact same hit on Tampa player last year playoffs
This was boarding, not the Point hit.
Maroon the goon bafoon! Loser! He will get nothing! Which is WRONG!
Cooper, look at your own players. Talk about avoidable hits.
The puck was long gone and the hit was from behind
Minimum 2 for boarding. NHL refs really suck. No consistency across the game.
Dirty hit for sure

That was way more dangerous that what Bunting did.
Looked like 'boarding' to me. Glad he wasn't seriously injured.
