NHL: Montreal Canadiens at Toronto Maple Leafs - Source: Imagn
The Toronto Maple Leafs took on the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night, a 4-1 victory by the host Leafs at Scotiabank Arena. It was their second straight win over a divisional opponent, as they bested the Detroit Red Wings by a 3-1 score 24 hours prior.
But a moment took place during the contest that had former Maple Leafs defenseman and current analyst Jay Rosehill fuming. Canadiens defenseman David Savard refused to drop the gloves with Leafs forward Max Domi, something that Rosehill called Savard out on during an appearance on "Leafs Morning Take."
"Look, it doesn't really matter what the deal is, or who it is, or what happened," Rosehill said of the incident. "When a guy challenges you at that level, you have two options. You can step up and accept - and that doesn't mean stand up and go toe to toe - but take your s**t off and defend yourself. Or you can pretend like you don't know what's going on, tuck your chin and hide and look around and scream for the ref and linesmen to save you."
