Pat Maroon warns Matthew Tkachuk for game 3
The Boston Bruins enforcer Pat Maroon warned Matthew Tkachuk for game 3 after the incident involving David Pastrnak of game 2.
If you missed it, in the second game between the Panthers and the Bruins, Pastrnak dropped the gloves against Matthew Tkachuk, after the Panthers' forward provoked him at the center of the ice.
You can get up to speed in the following videos:
Ahead of their second clash, Pat Maroon didn't hesitate to warn Matthew Tkachuk after the way he treated Pastrnak. He added that we likely won't see him fight against Tkachuk, as they probably never be on the ice at the same time.
Read his comments here:
"I mean Tkachuk's not going to fight me ... Just got to take numbers ... Obviously I didn't like how he hit [Pastrnak] on the ground twice ... I'll probably never play against Tkachuk anyway, so let's be realistic."
The Panthers destroyed the Bruins in game 2, winning 6-1 to tie the series at 1.
Maroon commented on his team's performance and how they need to be more angry and play with intensity:
"I think we should be pissed off. Especially about our game, most importantly. Their stuff, whatever...we gotta be mad here, play with intensity, play the way we're supposed to be playing."
