Got this from CDC
Jeremy Jacobs is the owner of the Boston Bruins and the Chairman for the Board of Governors.
He is a key figure for overseeing Gary Bettman, his contract, etc...
So lets go with some of the facts during these playoffs;
1) Gary Bettman, who is the boss of Colin Campbell, allowed Colin to be head disciplinarian of the NHL while his son played for Boston. Only until some of the media was all over this, did Colin feel the pressure to step down (but not before the finals).
2) Mike Murphy, who had stated he wanted LA to win while LA played Vancouver in last year's playoffs became head disciplinarian (who is also Colin's friend).
3) Aaron Rome delivers a body check, barely a second late from the play, is given a 5 minute majour, ejected and is suspended an NHL record 4 games in the Finals (some people equal that to over 16 regular NHL games).
4) Boychuk delivers a body check away from the play (well beyond a second late!) and gets NO penalty or is even looked at for suspension. This guy broke Raymond's back. On another topic, I was just sickened to hear the Boston crowd call Raymond a liar and not cheer him as he was helped off the ice.
There is something fishy going on here.
You decide.

Malhotra definitely does not look like the same player. All I noticed was him losing face off after face off. I guess its still better than Bolduc.

^ you definitely wonder what is going on. In his first game back, I recall he had a very high % won for faceoffs, but suddenly they get to Boston and everything just breaks down. Completely feels as though they are a different team when they play at Boston.

Brad Marchand kept punching and punching and punching.
And Daniel Sedin stood there and kept taking punch after punch after punch. Did Sedin wonder how many punches it would take for Marchand to get a penalty?
"Maybe after the fifth. But I took six. What can I do?" said Sedin, clearly agitated after being Marchand's punching bag in the third period.
An emotional Sedin said something afterward to referee Kelly Sutherland.
"I asked him why he didn't call the penalty. He said he was going to," Sedin said.
Marchand just shrugged off the moment.
Classic Refs.

Gallagher: No calls against Bruins until game is won
By Tony Gallagher, the ProvinceJune 14, 2011 11:03 AM
Perhaps the fans who travelled all the way from Vancouver for the games here should be considering action against the Canucks for failure to compete. After all they bought game tickets, and given the vaunted Vancouver offence has exactly one goal in three games here in this town, to call these affairs games would not be a stretch but rather a total distortion.
Vancouver didn't even get through the first period before the roof fell in Monday, Roberto Luongo again giving up a couple of softies early and then being pulled one goal too late by coach Alain Vigneault, who has more faith in Luongo than the Dalai Lama has in good karma. He'll be back to start Wednesday where he's been lights out at Rogers Arena, but while he's been a guesser on pucks here in Boston he's also guessing as to where the Vancouver offence may have gone.
No team in a position to win a Cup as Vancouver is has ever scored so few goals, even in the dead-puck era.
The Canucks have a grand total of eight goals in six games and three of them have been completely meaningless third-period markers here, two here Monday after the bomb had dropped. One was the rarest of all ducks, a Henrik Sedin goal, just Vancouver's second power play success of the series, and then a Maxim Lapierre effort late. The other came from Jannik Hansen late in Game 3 that was akin to putting on a hard hat after an eight-storey building falls on your head.
Why has the Vancouver offence gone dry? Lots of reasons of course, but Mason Raymond being carted off to the hospital just after the opening faceoff after Monday night's late hit by Johnny Boychuk with no puck near him and no call early in the first period is a pretty good place to start.
“We all thought it was a penalty but the referee says he (Raymond) lost his edge,” said Henrik Sedin. He also had his spine driven into the boards while he was in a vulnerable position. Stated simply, the Bruins can virtually do anything to any Vancouver player with total impunity until after the game is won. At that point, they then get their fair share of penalties. Further, they can do anything to any Vancouver player after the whistle while it's still a game and nothing is called unless there is a flagrant retaliation by the Vancouver player. At that point both infractions are called. Boston of course gets lots of penalties late, with the game decided, to make it look like they might even be getting shafted in total calls. But that's a familiar NHL pattern.
Even on a 5-on-3 against with the game over Vancouver gets very little protection. After David Krejci made it 5-1 with seven minutes gone in the third period of a game long over, Patrice Bergeron's cross check from behind on Alex Burrows was a clear and blatant shot after play had stopped. When Burrows reacted, both were called instead of just the initial shot. The officials just refuse to call the after-the-whistle stuff giving Boston license to poke and jab at will.
Even late it's weird. Daniel Sedin is repeatedly punched in the face by Brad Marchand. The little Bruin finally gets a penalty because who cares at that point, but Daniel gets a misconduct for catching.
“We're just gonna keep doing that and take it and hope they're going to call that stuff,” said Daniel. “We're confident they will.”
Others may not be so sure. And there are more pressing problems. Like what to do for a second line now that both Raymond and Mikael Samuelsson are down and Chris Higgins left the game for a bit in the third period before returning for a few more ineffective minutes. Higgins was wiped out in a double hit in the second period, the second of which might have been construed as a penalty midway through the second period, but whether or not he was shaken up, he hasn't been much good in this series anyway. Jeff Tambellini likely draws in there but he hasn't scored since Zdeno Chara was knee high to his shortest relative.
There have been mountains of shots of course, Tim Thomas sure to set the record for most saves in a series, but scoring chances? While that's a subjective call, it hasn't been a very pleasant subject for the Canucks.
But they were putting a positive light on it after the two third period goals.
“I thought we played better tonight,” said Henrik. “We moved the puck much better tonight and set up some really good chances. We just had that one stretch where everything went wrong in the first period. We played pretty well after that and we're looking forward to going home in front of our fans.”
And to think people were wondering how the Bruins would score against Vancouver before this started. The good news for Vancouver is that at Rogers Arena, they've had their own scoring issues.
Luongo and the rest of his teammates have to make sure that continues.

Well, it's a conspiracy that Bettman is still in his position.

You guys ever wonder how Nathan horton and the rest of the Bruins never really celebrated the OT win against the Habs with that much excitement? As if it was another regular season Ot victory? It made me wonder... if he didn't care, or if he just "expected" to win.. hmmm... There were other instances as well with the Bruins but I can't remember.
Even if players are not responsible for rigging games, I am not surprised if the refs are in the loop from higher heads.
