National Hockey League reviewing Marchand’s low hit on Borowiecki

Brad Marchand has a history with low hits leading to suspension and his discretion Tuesday night against the Ottawa Senators could lead to another. Ironically enough Tuesday’s game against the Senators was also the first one in his Bruins career that Marchand was wearing the “A” on his sweater in place of the injured David Krejci.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Is Fandango’s Top-Selling Movie Ever
Strong reviews for the film, which is set 30 years after “Return of the Jedi”, have added to the fervor for ” The Force Awakens “. Disney expects Friday’s U.S. and Canada ticket sales to top 0m (£67m), and thinks another 0m will be taken this weekend.

No clarity of whether the hearing is for a potential clip against the Senators Mark Borowiecki or if it’s for spearing Kyle Turris at the end of game. No penalty was called after Marchand hit Borowiecki in the first period, upending him and sending him to the ice.


Clash of offensive styles highlights matchup between LSU, Texas Tech
AFP: The Magazine In 2015, Augusta Free Press brought back our print magazine under a new name, Augusta Free Press: The Magazine. The Tigers out-gained Texas Tech 273-188 in the first half but committed seven penalties for 65 yards that held the Tigers back.

I find it impossible to give Marchand the benefit of the doubt that he was just trying to turn up ice to pursue the puck carrier given his approach, setup and elevated finish with both his body and stick that lifted and deposited his opponent on his head.

The Baghdad government was quick to announce a counter-offensive to retake the city but attempts repeatedly stalled. USA and Iraqi officials say the bulk of the combat effort came from airstrikes provided by the US and its allies.

Since Marchand was suspended for a slew-foot last January, he is a repeat offender in the eyes of the Department of Player Safety. “I just turned up and tried to go after the puck carrier”, said Marchand. He was banned five games for an incident involving Vancouver Canucks defenseman Sami Salo. After receiving the suspension, Marchand was quoted as saying, “If that’s an illegal hit, I’ll take that out of my game”. The DoPS even uses that hit in their educational video to differentiate clipping from traditional hip checks.
