Burrows Enjoying In-Game Meal During Stanley Cup Finals... ((UPDATED: No Suspension))

((HT: NHL on NBC))

To say the Game One of the Stanley Cup Finals has been a chippy one is a bit of an understatement... face washes, cross-checks, and two high-sticking on Zdeno Chara's face are just the beginning...

The HQ thinks we'll be here a while...
Alexandre Burrows may not after this...
((HT: PuckDaddy))


Our guess is that there will be a one-game suspension from NHL League Minster of Defence pro tem Mike Murphy...

At least... silly play at a bad time...

OFF DAY UPDATE: Burrows is not suspended...

"After reviewing the incident, including speaking with the on-ice officials, I can find no conclusive evidence that Alex Burrows intentionally bit the finger of Patrice Bergeron," Mike Murphy said in a statement.

Burrows denied biting Bergeron...

"I don't mind rough play and scrums at the end, as long as it's just pushing and shoving and all that," Bergeron said following the game. "But biting? I mean come on."

This should go over well for Game 2...
