Marner Caught Diving Against The Boston Bruins

Mitch Marner and the Toronto Maple Leafs are in an important division rivalry tonight against the Boston Bruins. Early in the game forward Mitch Marner had the puck behind the net. While trying to get away from pressure Marner was hit with a high stick in the face by Brandon Carlo.




Much to the displeasure of Bruins fans Marner sold the high stick and looked to take a dive. Bruins fans had no problem sharing their outrage for Marner's actions on social media.



Despite Bruins fans' complaints, Marner was not called for embellishment on the play and Carlo was assessed a two-minute minor. After the game, it will be interesting to see if the Bruins or Carlo have any comments on Marner's actions.
