Brandon Prust lays into referee Brad Watson

In the waning minutes of the Montreal Canadiens' 6-2 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning, Brandon Prust clearly lost his cool. He started a fight with Braydon Coburn after running Ben Bishop behind the net, then threw an elbow pad at the Lightning bench while taunting them.

In his post game scrum, Prust went a step further, and ripped referee Brad Watson:

Prust just said Watson called him every name in book for disputing the call. Then gave him the extra 2. Prust said Watson tries to play GD

Prust said he responded to Watson ' s insults "yeah ok, yeah ok, yeah ok" then gave him the extra 2.
