Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand has received a warning from the NHL about licking the faces of his opponents.
Colin Campbell, the league91裸聊视频檚 executive vice-president and director of hockey operations, spoke with Marchand and Bruins general manager Don Sweeney on Saturday.
According to the NHL, Campbell put Marchand on notice that his actions are unacceptable and similar behaviour in the future will lead to supplemental discipline.

Hmmm...the mainstream hockey media has chosen to make a MASSIVE deal about Marchand91裸聊视频檚 kisses/licks but still fail to recognize the incredibly one-sided officiating in the Bruins/Lightning series.

If the NHL is going continue to let Brad Marchand lick his opponents without consequence - an unsportsmanlike penalty or fine - may I suggest they remove the instigator penalty so the players can handle this situation internally. The game is better than this. 馃う馃徎91裸聊视频嶁檧锔�
