Hockey fans were in for quite the treat on Thursday night, as the New York Islanders faced off against the Boston Bruins in a fight between two of the top teams in the Eastern Conference. With the game tied at one goal apiece in the second period, center Mathew Barzal unleashed a vicious shot, putting the puck past Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask to give the Isles the 2-1 lead. It was all thanks to a nasty pass from defenseman Johnny Boychuck, and Barzal was caught giving him some explicit praise for the assist.

"What a...pass," Barzal exclaimed. Well, kind of. It's missing one big F-bomb.

Hey, when you're able to score off Tuukka Rask, you have to give praise to the guy who passed it to you.
