Buchnevich see's him coming and goes "Screw this I'm going to get you first"

If you aren't going to call penalties, or suspend players taking advantage of skilled players, then the skilled players are going to need to get their sticks up to defend themselves. The league and refs let this get out of hand with their inaction.
I watched the first two periods and Buchnevich was running all over the ice hunting and hacking. Went after Wilson, and after he left he carried it on to others.

Chara even challenged him. And it was deserved.

Don’t get me wrong, I almost enjoy that the players went out and mocked the league.
