As Marner was behind the Bruins net battling for the puck, he managed to get some spare room to try and get out front. During the play, the stick of Boston's Brandon Carlo came up somewhat, possibly reaching his chest. Marner went for the Oscar, hamming it up for any official who might be close by.
The move was, of course, instantly noticed by Bruins fans, and they got right down to business calling out Marner for the dive.
Boston took a 2-0 lead into the second period.
