Refs screw over the Panthers after missing blatant penalty on McAvoy
During game 4 of the Florida Panthers versus Boston Bruins game, the referees look to have missed a massive call that has screwed the Panthers over majorly.
Every inch counts in the NHL playoffs, so when the officials miss an important call it makes total sense for fans and even players to react. Power plays are what win and lose games, and so when one team doesn't get one that they probably should, it can have major repercussions.
The Florida Panthers appear to be on the short end of the stick tonight against the Boston Bruins. During a play, Charlie McAvoy landed a massive hit on Sam Reinhart of the Panthers with no call on the play being made.

Some fans are upset as they thought that the call should have been made for interference on the play, and they have a good argument to be made as Reinhart didn't even play the puck before getting levelled.
Interference. My god Boston is soft
This comes just a game after Sam Bennet got away with a pretty blatant sucker punch on Boston's captain Brad Marchand, as this series appears to continue to get chippy as it continues on.
For people saying it wasn't a sucker punch by Bennett on Marchand you're wrong.
With the Panthers leading by just 1 in the series, we could have a few more games of this moving forward.
