Video: Bordeleau tossed for checking Schenn from behind

BordeleauSchenn

Colorado tough guy Patrick Bordeleau was tossed from Thursday’s tilt with the Flyers after hitting Philly forward Brayden Schenn from behind:

Bordeleau was given five and a game, a decision that incensed Avs head coach Patrick Roy.

Anyone surprised Patrick Roy just burst blood vessels screaming at the officials over that call?

It’s worth noting that Bordeleau has no history with the NHL’s Department of Player Safety. Schenn didn’t appear to be injured -- he proceeded to take a power play shift late in the first period -- so it’s unclear if Bordeleau’s hit will be reviewed.
