Yet another reason I never liked Wes McCauley

Quote:
Fan-favorite Wes McCauley, a longtime NHL referee and former player, seemingly checked Marchand close to the boards as he handled the puck with his head tucked.

The resulting "hit," as some on social media have called it, sent Marchand to the ground with McCauley seemingly unmoved.
See the video here:
https://www.foxnews.com/sports/nhl-referee-takes-out-bruins-brad-marchand-surprise-check-bizarre-moment

McCauley is biased and always has been. I'm sure it was not intentional but he needs to apologize to Marchand.

If Marchand had defended himself by setting up a position against McCauley he would have been thrown a game misconduct. He had to let the hit to him happen.

It was cool to see Ully pull off a Brodeur. A perfect shot.

It looks to me that it was incidental contact and the only reason Bad Brad went down so easy is that he didn't want to hit the ref hard. Looks pretty harmless to me.
It's hockey. Stuff happens.

^^^ Agreed. One would have to view this through quite the biased eye to see it as anything other than incidental.

He went down pretty easy. I guess because you are not aloud to plow through an official.

It is the ref's job to stay out of the way in order to not affect the playing field.
The players would rather lose the play, lost the point, lose the game than plow into the ref and make they mad.
IMO, Wes didn't try to avoid interfering with Brad. If Brad did the same move to an opposing team player he would have been penalized and if he did it to the ref he would have been persona non grata that game.

He went down trying to draw a call because he’s a dirty little ***** and didn’t know it was the ref. Too bad he didn’t get harder.
