Nino Niederreiter took a hit from behind from Kris Russell and retaliated by slamming Oscar Klefbom and getting booked for boarding. A massive scrum ensued as tensions boiled over.

the first hit was way worse, cross check/boarding/hit from behind.
LOL Colby cave. Any fellow bruins fans here? đ
Well the ref did their jobs that wouldn't had to happen now would it
Was this the officiating crew from the NFC championship game?
SportsNet has the most incompetent and biased commentators. Oilers are irrelevant and are barely NHL caliber at this point. So bad. Refs have been soft as of late but the second guy always gets caught
Well. Refs should do they job
If the refs did their job correctly, that would've never happen.
This is what I wish Tkachuk would've done when Niskanen drilled him way away from the puck with no call, or when Draisaitl slew-footed him earlier in the year (again, with no call). The Flames get nailed with cheap-shots all the time these days because teams know they won't get hit back. We don't have anybody big enough to risk in a fair fight with bigger opponents, but if they shoved a few faces through the glass, the thugs might think twice before cheap-shotting them a second time. Good work, Nino.
It wouldnât have happened if the ref made the original call on Russell lmfao
Oilers commentary is about as much common sense as they show on the ice
No way that second hit was worse than the first one.
Couldâve been avoided if you called the first one ref smh
this is called " refs not doing their job"
I respect it
Two wrongs donât make a right đ
I think Wilsonâs gonna get suspended for this one boys
Either the refs police the game or the players will.
How did the referee not consider the first hit to be against the rules? No way that he could have not seen that.
2 Penguins jerseys, 2 Bruins jerseys and guy at 1:18 has glass seats to a line brawl and would rather play on his phone.
Your cringeworthy win celebrations aren't growing the sport in Carolina.
Clearly a retaliation penalty.. he should be suspended… it was premeditated.
Hello, I'm Niiinnnoooo!!
edmonton suuux
If the refs make the call on russel, klefbom never gets hit. Js.
Why didn't he bring that when he played for the wild? Miss you Nino!
this is what happens when the refs donât take control of the game. i donât blame nino
This is the definition of what is wrong with the NHL Officiating. Donât blame Nino for getting upset.
Make yourself useful and fight someone Kharia. Enjoy being back in the AHL next year
Look how eager the ref is to call a penalty on him. It's like he's thinking "I'd be pissed if someone did that to me with no penalty called, I'd better watch him."
You gotta make that first call ref. Then this wouldn't happen
Aaaand that's on the refs
