I'd have no issue with an opponent celebrating a goal. No issue at all. He never even looked at the Bruins. He was focused on his team and headed to the Caps bench in the usual manner. I think it shows weakness when you overreact to something so harmless and innocent. It shows weakness when you try to make a big deal out of nothing. In other words, a pussy reaction. That was not about Eller's celebration. It was about the frustration of being dominated and embarrassed.
Tag. You're it! ;)

Ya the Bruins got embarrassed that game and so did Eller. Did you notice no one came in to defend him and there was no retaliation?

Maaco, you talk as if all the Caps on the bench, felt like you did! No retaliation? As if the other Caps players were collectively thinking, “boy, I’m glad Marchand got him! We won’t do a thing because Eller deserved it”!! 😂🤣. Just venturing a guess here but uh......I don’t think they process stuff like you, necessarily!!
I’m more on the side of a PROVEN, dirty, poor sport like Marchand, losing his cool, after their whole team was dominated.
I know you can’t stand Eller, but hell, even when I used to ABHORE Carlson, I didn’t wish him a bloody head! Either way, it may be one way we differ!
From the video, I couldn’t tell if Eller intentionally taunted Marchand, or not!!
Worst case, even if I was an “Eller hater”, type of Caps fan, I’d say, Marchand took exception to Eller, Eller’s not a fighter, Eller got bloodied, and WHATEVER, real or imagined, price was paid! End of the fricken story! It’s DONE! You seem to relish it!
I will add that if Marchand gets retaliated against, coming up with Boston, than your posts point will be totally flattened.

I doubt there's any retaliation.. Only real injury to Eller was his pride. Maybe Lewington or DSP or someone could chirp up Marchand and see if he'll go, but I wouldn't count on us (especially not Wilson) chasing him around/cornering him, like Boston did to us that time..
* Good grief, didn't realize Marchand was such a shrimp.. We have no one that small who can/will fight, that I know of.. Prolly be best for Eller to sniff some salts and go it alone! :snicker:
