Agreed.
It just all comes across as hypocritical the way MTL downplayed the Subban slash on Stone (the merit of the slash can still be debated) to the media, saying its part of hockey, and then Prust goes to whine about something like this. Prust is not a sympathetic character here. He has been bumping Bishop all series and I guarantee if Tampa was doing that to MTL there would be a huge uproar from the MTL organization.
If the referee was out of line with saying some things, fine, review that, go through the proper channels. This just comes across as a little desperate.
I say all this as a fan of the habs. I just think Prust has hurt them in this series, and drawing attention to his poor self detracts from how poorly the Habs actually played most of last night (maybe that is part of the plan).
