It was a chaotic to Game 2 in Boston as the Bruins fell 6-3 to the Florida Panthers who tied up the series at 1 on Wednesday night.
The disturbing scene took place in the final two minutes as Radko Gudas, Nick Foligno and Garnet Hathaway were sent off with game misconducts. It all came to a brutal end when Bruins’ Trent Frederic got tangled up with Ryan Lomberg and both players started throwing punches. Frederic took down the Panthers’ forward, who however reversed their position while down on the ice before reportedly throwing the Bruins’ forward into a choke hold.
The video shows Frederic kicking his legs wildly while linesmen Kyle Flemington flails around trying to separate the two players.
After the game, Frederic was visibly upset, and probably got even more frustrated that there was no supplemental discipline for Lomberg’s actions as it remains unclear on whether he actually choked Frederic.
Frederic commented on the choke hold on Friday after practice: "Couldn't breathe. Maybe panicked a little too early. But it was getting close there where the lights were going to turn off for a second. I've never seen that one."
You can only imagine that Lomberg will get some special attention and treatment from the Bruins in Game 3.
Game on, boys!
