Damn .... that was a nail biter last night !!!
Kinda a feel out game ... second one should be a bit intresting considering our #1 goaltender is done
Remember the oil dropped the first 2 games to the sharks and came back , this series is far from over or decided . Last night showed 2 pretty even matched teams , it's going to come down to lucky bounces and shit- ass ref-ing to decide .
Short hands goals piss me off .... you can call just about any hit a penalty if you want .. charging , roughing , boarding , tripping , interferance . Any one of those apply to just about any hit , it's all in the ref's eyes and vantage point .
Those delay of game calls for shooting the puck over the boards is bullshit ... just look at how many games were won in this playoff's off penalties called for delay of game where the winner was scored because the other team was short handed ...
Why not call icing delay of game ?? it's the same thing if you beleive the player is shooting the puck over the boards because his team is in trouble .... 98% of the time it's accidental , what a bullshit rule
