THere's an unspoken rule in hockey that you don't a player up high, especially if that player were to be the captain and arguably the classiest player currently playing in the NHL. Apparently, Montreal Canadiens center Rem Pitlick didn't get that memo, and he soon paid for it.
During tonight's game at TD Garden between Original 6 rival Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens, Pitlick caught Bruins captain Patrice Bergeron with his shoulder that landed seemingly square on the latter's nose.
Marchand would immediately respond to Pitlick, tackling him in the crease and proceeding to rain blows down upon him, much to the delight of the sold out crowd.
