The Philadelphia Flyers suffered two disallowed goals against the Montreal Canadiens in a frustrating game at the Bell Centre, where officiating was being questioned and plenty of players went at it as the game marched on.

"I think the league will look at something that they saw during the game that the refs told us they didn't see," Garnet Hathaway stated regarding the ongoing animosity that occurred on the ice. "I think that will come to light a little bit."
Head coach John Tortorella, however, didn't seem nearly as enthusiastic about any potential reviews.
"It doesn't matter," he said. "They didn't see it... I'm not even commenting on it. I really don't care about it. I care about other things."
Nick Suzuki opened up the scoring, netting his 30th of the season to put the Canadiens up 1-0.
Jesse Ylonen then snapped a 43-game goal drought to increase the Habs' lead to 2-0.
Joel Armia then buried an empty-net goal to make it 3-0 to the Canadiens.
Owen Tippett was able to help the Flyers avoid a shutout by pulling one back in the last minute of the game, netting his 27th goal of the season.
Jake Evans put the final nail in the coffin, however, scoring a slow-rolling empty-netter to put the Habs on top 4-1.
The Flyers will return back to Philadelphia to take on the Chicago Blackhawks on Mar. 30 at 7:00 p.m. EST.
