I'm a #2, a #9, a #11 (to the television, because the players can hear me), and ultimately a #20 when the emotion subsides after the first 10 seconds.

This just brought back the horror of last Monday all over again..BTW that video seems fake...That seemed like it was acting...I was definetely the fan that didnt move after the OT goal..By that time I was 99 percent we were losing..I was in shock and utter disbelief at what I was witnessing..

 

Actually I was ALMOST slowly getting better before I read this post..**** me..Why the **** did that have to happen..

 

SO ****ing close...We actually had home advantage over a weaker Ranger squad, and I think we match up well against the Penguins...I still cant believe this shit happened to us.

Lol Datsyuk isnt talented? Really Glenn??

 

Also for Karlsson one game he's a "one trick pony" and then next he's "the reigning Norris winner for a reason". Worse than Cherry imho; at least with Grapes he's there for entertainment factor & not serious analysis.

Just watched that disallowed goal. Has to be one of the worst calls I've ever seen, especially in terms of importance. I'm rooting for the Red Wings, but that was awful.

Yeah, I watched it this morning. Absurd no-goal.

Worst call ever? That's a bit much. It was a bad call but out of 100 called against Holmstrom over his career 25 were just like that. Puck luck and I'm glad it went my teams way. I'm only tired of the people who think this decided the game. It didn't. Love watching the Hawks lose composure. Seems they thought this was going to be easy. They still might win the series but it's not going to be the cakewalk everyone even myself thought it would be. I'm falling in love with this new Wings team.

I don't think we all fully understand the rule tbh. Myself included.

 

Contact isn't necessary. But he's impeding the goalie's ability to make a save by being in the crease and not immediately retreating. He stood there, so by default, the goalie couldn't. And he was deep in the crease.

 

I understand the call, and I understand the outrage. It comes back, as all officiating discussions do, to consistency, and the NHL's consistent lack thereof.

It's a tough call and I too understand the outrage. I could be just as outraged about the boarding call that got missed that resulted in Kane's goal but we won so I'm over it.

 

Serge,

So they need to have NFL-style calls; the ref needs to man up and say "The goal was disallowed because the player was in the crease for an extended time period and made no effort to leave; thereby interfering with the goalies ability to make a save". Bamm --- way better than this wtf-ery.
