Michael Bunting's reputation for being a bit of an on-ice pest is definitely growing.

While he was in a game with the Boston Bruins, where Brad Marchand, known for being a rat would generally cause the most trouble, Bunting decided to make his presence very known.

In a little scrum with Trent Frederic, Bunting opted to kick Frederic in the back of the knee as retaliation.

While Frederic wasn't injured, being kicked in the back of the knee could lead to things as bad as a torn ACL. Bunting should be smart enough to know that this type of act should be off limits.

Frederic then slashed Bunting to the side of the leg, which is still worthy of a penalty, but is at least much less prone to cause an injury.

As a pending UFA, Bunting should start to behave a little better he can misbehave after he gets a big contract!
