VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) -Vancouver forward Alex Burrows got a 10-minute misconduct for telling referee Stephane Auger what he thought of him late in Monday night’s 3-2 loss to Nashville.
Burrows could be facing punishment from the NHL after sharing his opinion with the media after the game, including accusations Auger targeted him and promised to get revenge.
Burrows scored twice, but was in the penalty box for a second time when Nashville’s Shea Weber scored the game-winner with 4:03 to play.
He said Auger approached him before the game and told him he was going to get him back for embellishing a Dec. 8 hit in Nashville.
Auger and the officiating crew declined to comment when approached by The Associated Press as they were leaving the arena.
