No way is that a major. If you "have" to call a penalty there, then call a 2 minute boarding penalty.
I mean what do you expect the Bruins forechecker to do there? There was no icing on the play so you expect him to give up positioning there and let the Capitals gain possession to avoid the contact altogether?
Boston fan here. Its a major. Dangerous distance from the boards, too much force, too high. That said, if you go frame by frame, Fehervary did use his legs in an awkward way. He played the puck with his foot and after doing so tries to recover and does toe pick. Which is exactly why the rule changed from "into the boards" to "distance from the boards." Honestly its insane that Fehervary returns to the game at all without injury based on the way his leg bends.

Wasn't he on the Isles? Did I miss the trade and if so why did Boston pick him?💀
Weak ass call by the refs who are brutal as always. From an Avs fan.

He wasn't even near the boards
Lol wut? It was just a shove?
Dude shoved him face first into the boards. 2 games
Bullshit call as usual. Guy had time to put his hands up and stop himself from hitting the boards. 🤨
In reality, he was about 9 feet away from the boards bottom of the face off circle not even close to a penalty never mind the major
NHL = No Hitting League
It's the shove while he was trying to stop far from the boards. Very dangerous play that can break their neck without needing a lot of force applied.
Fuckin Zacha 🤦 let’s just watch your young player get sat on
These Bostwon announcers are PATHETIC!!
Prick
"Not a hit on the numbers but he hit em hahd from behind". Boston loves their homer announcers
Fehervary hit the brakes and tried to lean on Wahlstrom. Wrong spot to hit the brakes. Didnt work out very well. Shoulda been 2 minutes at the most.
Not a penalty at all. Now I hate Boston a lot, but the defender was stopping… Whalstrom kept going… it wasn't a hit or push… defender caught an edge.
Gotta be strong on your skates there bud
Deliberate attempt to injure…. should be a 3 game suspension.
Ticks all the boxes according to the NHL's publicly available definitions of boarding. Weird, but an appropriate call.
Bruins being the Bruins again I see
Ain’t no WAY they just played “Am I Evil?”
He really tried to throw a reverse hit 😂 thats not a penalty

He’s been taking lessons from Marchand.
@:21 WOW!!!!!!!!!
The fact he could glide into the boards after the “hit” proves it is not a super dangerous play.
Bruins doing Bruins things
Add five more games to Rempe's suspension. 😂
