Even worse, they employed them after the incident. So by your logic, what Shawn Thornton did to Orpik was fine, right?

Bruins aren't the cleanest team in the league but they aren't the dirtiest. Save that for teams like the Pens, Wild, and Flyers.
Every once in a while, a Bs player does something dirty (Marchand, Lucic) but the team plays the game the right way most of the time (like Detroit).
