No suspension. NHL says there wasnt conclusive evidence.

Another terrific game. Didn't have the pace of game 1, but didn't lack for chances or drama. I'll bet Bruin fans are none to happy that Burrowes ends up the star of the game.

Dr Paul - You could see this coming once the no suspension decision was issued. With that said, the Bs recent history of giving up early and late period goals continues to haunt them. Must take care of the home ice Monday and Wed.

I am shocked that he didn't get a game....I've been very impressed with the way the B's have contained Vancouver's speed, but they have paid foe seemingly every breakdown or turnover. Tonight's game is the series.

That was a brutal chicken **** hit.

Best B's effort since the days of Robert Gordon......

Can they possibly play like this for 3 more wins? Who the hell is this team in front of Smith tonight? Cheap shot on Horton changed the whole damn game!
Wednesday will be interesting....

Very impressive performance by the Bruins. I think weathering the storm in the first period after getting nothing on the 5 minute power play changed the game. Luongo has a habit of letting games like this get in his head, so it will be interesting if the B's can take advantage.

Rome gets four. I'd say five would have been more appropriate. Still, he's getting some Darren McCarty-Claude Lemieux treatment when these guys meet in the regular season next year.

Really he get 4 plus whatever Horton has to miss.

Good point, there are only four games left in the finals. Appropriate punishment, IMO.

I think that should be the rule for the regular season too. It's an eye for an eye type deal.
If someone should deliver a blatent cheap shot (regardless of blind side hit, slash, high stick, etc....). The offender should sit out for as long as the injured party is out plus whatever suspension is handed out.

Obviously we are talking about match penalty type hits (which really don't occur too many times a season).
