Shawn Thornton has no time for Alexei Emelin

Eric Bolte-USA TODAY SportsAlexei Emelin is sneaky the least-likeable Canadien.

He's prone to cheap plays and sell-out hits, but never seems to answer the bell when people come calling.

His built-in excuse is that he can't fight due to having a plate in his head, but at least one player doesn't seem to care: former Bruin Shawn Thornton.

Thornton went off on Emelin after last night's loss in Montreal. Why? Emelin delivered a cheapshot to the head of Panthers captain Derek MacKenzie, then dropped to the ice and turtled when Thornton came calling.

After the game, Thornton went off.
