This was exactly not the case for his 8 game stint earlier, as he was hit often both before and after the whistle. I personally don't think refs appreciate any player that chirps at them in a way that shows them up, which he is guilty of.
Anyway, I'm hoping to see playoff hockey tonight; both teams want that top Atlantic seed.

I believe that it's mainly a stigma attached to very prolific players in sports similar to someone like Tom Brady who many feel gets babysat by the referees.
Anyway, should be a great game. I'm assuming Asham and Prust will get very well acquainted.
