“It was an, ‘Oh s***’ reaction, we don’t want to see that from anybody, especially him with how he’s been playing. He means a lot to us. So for him to go back there, obviously it’s not ideal.”
Speaking about the incident, head coach Tom Thibodeau said:
“You knew for him to do that [it might be serious], he’s a guy who plays through things, and that’s what you love about him. He’s a warrior.”
