An irate Jonathan Marchessault goes OFF on the NHL in F bomb laced tirade

If you somehow managed to miss last night’s controversial finish to Game 7 between the Vegas Golden Knights and San Jose Sharks… well you missed a doozy. 

With the Knights up 3-0 with just over half a period left in the game, Sharks captain Joe Pavelski took a cross check from Cody Eakin, sending him sprawling to the ice awkwardly and splitting his head wide open.

Here’s the play in question:

The Sharks would go on to score four… yes FOUR… goals on a five minute power play to take the lead, only to have Vegas forward Jonathan Marchessault tie the game up in the final minute of regulation.

In overtime though, it was the Sharks who came out on top:

It was BEDLAM in San Jose last night and Knights fans are understandably upset. Not because they lost however, but because of HOW they lost. It’s clear from the replay that Pavelski’s injury was not a result of Eakin’s cross check, but rather a result of him falling awkwardly and crashing his head on the ice. A five minute major, Knights fans argue, is excessive and ultimately tipped the game in the Sharks’ favor unfairly. And you know what? Marchessault agrees.

Marchessault went OFF on the NHL following the game in an F bomb laced tirade that’s sure to earn him a fine from the league.
