Bruins star David Pastrnak left furious after the referee destroys him
In the whirlwind pace of NHL action, refs often struggle to keep pace, sometimes affecting the game inadvertently.
Such a moment occurred during the Boston Bruins versus Florida Panthers Game 1 face-off, and it didn't sit well with Bruins' star David Pastrnak.
While maneuvering along the boards, Pastrnak found himself colliding with referee Chris Rooney, disrupting his play. The impact left #88 visibly irked, shooting a glare of frustration at the referee.
Despite the mishap, Rooney quickly checked on Pastrnak during the next stoppage, showing concern for the player's well-being.
