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?
— Anthony SanFilippo (@InsideTheFlyers) February 7, 2014It’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.
