from Jean Lefebvre of the Calgary Herald,
Oh, how Andre Roy tried his darnedest to collect a fighting major Tuesday….
After emerging from the sin bin 120 seconds later, the antagonists quickly found each other again, once more rid themselves of the mittens and gave it another go. In Round 2, punches were thrown and punches were landed, with the last two shots being Roy lefts that stung Semenov.
“They’ll get five minutes for this one,” said Sportsnet analyst John Garrett with confidence.
Ah, but no, roughing minors were again assessed.
“When I saw the two minutes,” said Roy. “I started laughing. Is he kidding me? I don’t know, man. If that’s a roughing, I’ll take a lot more of that. I’ve seen some way (less violent) fights than that were called for five minutes.”
read on and watch the roughing penalty call below…
