Zdeno Chara penalties hurt Boston on Sunday
Zdeno Chara - D - Boston Bruins
March 4, 2013 - 10:00 AM ET

The Bruins ended up paying for Zdeno Chara's attempt to stand up for teammate Tyler Seguin in Sunday's loss to Montreal.

Boston held a 3-2 lead late in the second period when Canadiens defenseman Alexei Emelin chopped at Seguin and sent him to the ice without a penalty. Chara went after Emelin as a result of the play and earned himself two for instigating, five for fighting, and a 10-minute misconduct. With Chara in the box, Montreal scored two goals before the midway point of the third to record a 4-3 victory.
