Brandon Prust calls Paul MacLean a 'bug-eyed, fat walrus'

Ah, the playoffs...

Bruce Bennett

Some context here from NHL.com: Paul MacLean placed the blame partially on Lars Eller on Thursday night for the hit that hospitalized him.

"(If I'm Eller), I'm really mad at player 61, whoever he is, because he passed me the puck in the middle of the rink when I wasn't looking," said MacLean. "That's always been a dangerous place as far as I know. Ever since I've been playing this game, that's a dangerous place to be - bad things happen.

"I think it's a hockey play that ended up going badly for Lars Eller."
