With 40 seconds left in the first period of the Boston Bruins’ 4-0 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning, Boston’s Brad Marchand was suspended for whacking Lightning defenseman Jake Dotchin in the dick.
With the win, the Bruins clinched a Stanley Cup playoff berth, but Marchand, a repeat offender who pulled a similar move in 2015 and has been suspended from the league four times, could possibly face another suspension.
Correction (10:15 p.m. ET): This post has been updated to reflect that penalty was assessed at the end of the first period.
