Bruins Coach Bruce Cassidy Whines Again, Gets Fined $25,000 for Officiating Rant

Boston Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy must really be feeling the pressure, and now it’s costing him some money.

He was fined $25,000 by the NHL for public comments complaining about the officiating Monday night after his team lost Game 5, although this is now a three-day theme for the Bruins coach, who is one loss away from another season falling short of expectations.

After the Bruins lost Game 4 of their second-round NHL playoff series to the New York Islanders, Cassidy complained in a laughable break with reality that the Bruins haven’t gotten many power plays throughout the playoffs.
