    Opens the door for a Bruin to bite them back. I really hope someone does it too just to make a point.

    This was obviously not going to be a suspension in the Stanley Cup.

    Just imagine if it was a Bruin that bit a Canuck player and didn't get suspended. I can hear the crying rioting Canucks fan now..."waaahhhh, Colin Campbell, conspiracy theory, series is fixed, waahhh".

    He didn't jam his glove into Burrows' mouth, the guy knew exactly what he was doing. No harm, no foul I guess. Doesn't really matter....Bergeron isn't hurt and it's a non-issue now.

    that pretty easy to say

    Didn't he show his finger to the refs right after it happened??

    oh what the hell, let's just forget about it

    Wasn't someone suspended for biting during last years playoffs? I think it was the same type of incident, if so we have controversy.

    I'm surprised about all the outcry over this who gives a fcuk. They were both frenchmen and they always fight dirty

    If you've ever played hockey you know how thick the gloves are. He probably doesn't even have a scratch on him. Was it a bitch move? Yes of course.

    The bite last year was to the actual flesh of an exposed finger was it not? The fact he nibbled him through a glove makes this not nearly as bad. The media is
    likening this to Tyson biting off Holyfield's ear. Come on mannnnnnnn!

    WTF you talking about? Guy had a point in every game in the series vs the Sharks. He's done whats to be expected of him. 14 points in 19 games and 7 goals including one of the biggest goals in franchise history.

    Elimination games are where he shows up. The turnovers and penalties yesterday and sloppy play was just awful....yeah he had a big goal but that is the past. Torres had a big goal too yesterday...

    Agreed. Offensively he's been respectable but defensively he's struggled a lot.

    it was a dirty move by bergeron to try and give burrows the 'stinky finger' and stick his sweaty glove in his mouth. and if this incident opened some kind of "door" then i guess Chara opened the door a few months ago for cheap hits on players into partitions

    You'll notice that not only was Bergeron not looking at Burrows when his finger went in his mouth, but that Burrows actually made the move to bite the finger and that in no way was it an accident. What a scumbag he is... definitely should've been a 1 game suspension.

    scumbag? man you obviously never played hockey before.

    Guys slash your wrists to break your fingers, elbow you in the face with a hard plastic elbow pads and even take their gloves off and fight with bare knuckles until they are cut and bleeding all over the ice. A little bite at some glove which was pushed into his face is dick all. A suspension would have been idiotic. Much do do about nothing and scumbag is not warranted that's for certain.

    Played hockey for a few years, actually. Are you seriously defending someone biting another player?

    Slashing is a penalty. Elbowing is a penalty. Fighting is a penalty. If any of those are severe, they can result in suspensions, right? But someone who intentionally bites someone is okay in your eyes, and not a scumbag?

    dude come on. He didn't pull a Mike Tyson and spit out a chuck of his ear. I just think scumbag was a little strong. Burrows is a good kid and plays with such passion and intensity which I love and those type of players sometimes go a little over board. I say, its no biggie and try not to bite another play Alex.
