VIDEO: Bruins' Thornton squirts water at Canadiens' Subban
Near the end of a 4-2 Bruins win in Game 5 on Saturday, Boston tough guy Shawn Thornton had a little fun at P.K. Subban's expense.
Thornton took his water bottle and tossed some of the contents towards the Canadiens defenseman as he skated past the Bruins bench, and proceeded to have a good little chuckle about it as Subban subsequently approached the referee.
Leave it to Thornton to rain on what was Boston's best all around effort of the series so far.
It may also end up being a fairly expensive waste of water.
As lame as it may sound, Hockey Ops and safety dept will discuss potential of fine for Thornton squirting water at Subban during play.

Here's what Subban had to say about the incident after the game.
PK Subban on the water incident:"It happen twice. If it was me who did that it would have been in the news for the next 3 days." #tvasports

Subban says he was sprayed twice in visor by water. Took high road: "It's not going to be bulletin-board material in here." #Habs #HabsIO
