Jack Edwards rips NHL referees apart after his Bruins get hosed

Jack Edwards was pretty infamous when he worked with the Boston Bruins as their play-by-play broadcaster.
He was mostly known for being one of the more egregious homers in the league. Everything the Bruins did was good and everything their opponents did was bad. He was beloved by Bruins fans and absolutely hated and despised by those who had to watch his broadcasts as a fan of the visiting team. Having said that, Edwards remains someone who will speak his mind on matters involving his team.
For instance, in a 6-4 win against the Montreal Canadiens, the Bruins had a goal called back because of goaltender interference. However, in a post on Reddit, Edwards went off on the league, noting that the contact was all Primeau's fault.
"So Primeau thrusts off his line and Brazeau goes to inside ice," wrote Edwards on Reddit. "If you draw a line to the sky from the crease, the contact comes outside the crease. Next goal Montreal is going to appeal that a Bruin had a garlic garnish on his pregame and Primeau couldn't do his job because of the Bruin's bad breath."
This kind of hot take is absolutely nothing new for someone like Edwards. He loves his Boston Bruins and he will always do everything he can to make them look like the most angelic team in the league. It is what it is and if you are an Edwards fan, this is the kind of stuff you come to him for.
