Exact words by Prust about MacLean:
We don't really care about what that big eyed fat walrus has to say.
Therrien is going off on MacLean right now for a lack of respect for Eller and the rules of hitting to head in today's game.

Prust: I trust the league - well, trust is a big word - I hope the league suspends (Gryba). Actually no. I hope he doesn't get suspended.
Eller, Pacioretty, and Gionta all not playing tonight, apparently. Big losses.

Brutal stuff there.
Look, I get that they are angry a teammate got clobbered in the fashion that Eller did. I understand there is emotion and they have to get right back to the ice tonight...but calling maclean names like that ( who i thought was more than fair in his assement of things when describing "player 61" and the initial pass) and then indirectly threatening retribution on Gryba?
This is approaching bertuzzi/Canucks territory, and I hope the NHL absolutely throttles this with heavy warnings and possible fines/suspensions.
And i am a huge Prust fan.
Oh and Therrien needs to shut his yap and worry about getting his players focussed on playing hockey tonight or they will find themselves in a hole so big they wont be able to get out of it.
