    Oh, ouch. I'm really sorry. Somehow he'll find a way to get New York eliminated in the first round by the Blackhawks every other playoffs. And say goodbye to goals, while you watch your team down by two or three in the third and they're still cycling the puck in every single zone to the tune of Sweet Georgia Brown, effectively ragging it against themselves.

    They already weren't scoring goals with Torts, so with Vigneault? You never know, it might be the change NYR and Vigneault both needed, we'll see...

    Kane is once again being too predictable staying to the outside with his pass before shoot mentality. I think Kane and Toews need to be put back together, with all the right things Saad does, he just doesn't finish, I think he could get a little more comfortable on the 3rd line. I think Stalberg would suite for game 3 seeing as the sole reason Bollig was out there was to hit, and last night he didn't log a single hit in 8 minutes, I wont say he was the goat of the game because before that turnover there were MANY good chances for Boston to score. Yes, Stalberg tends to have brick hands and turn the puck over, but even then he can get the puck behind Bostons d and hes great on the boards.

    because teams absolutely havent ever been robbed by an early whistle or the like before. that said i didnt see the play so i cannot comment either way on wether they got robbed or not.

    I think they're all inning to get Mackinnon because in our recent history, we've lacked centermen. I'd imagine a similar offer is being made to Florida but it's a general consensus that any one of the top 3 are the real deal. Makes me think maybe they're not as confident in picking Lindholm/Monahan or probably Mackinnon is too good not to try and get with what we have. I know Tanguay wants out, Cammalarri too but I'm not sure either Florida or Colorado are really that interested in either player. We'll see what happens, either way I won't be disappointed. 3 1st's or getting a top 3 is fine with me.

    it was on sports center and everyone could see the puck cross the goal line.even the broad caster on SC said he thought it was a goal.

    like i said, all it takes is "intent to blow the whistle" and the goal is washed out. wouldnt be the first time something like that has happened in the playoffs.

    Like you said though it's "intent to blow whistle" but whatever. Calls go both ways. It happens. *shrug*

    believe me, i know it sucks, Detroit has been BONED a lot for various reasons (intent to blow the whistle, phantom goaltender interference, etc).

    I guess Colorado wants those 3 picks + a young current roster player. God I hope Seth Jones flops for them now.

    I've been saying for a long time, a Seattle/Vancouver rivalry would be great. Right now the Canucks are a silly looking 3rd wheel in Edmonton and Calgary's marriage.

    Jones is supposed to be a top notch defenseman with the ability to play a lot of minutes per game, and he grew up in Colorado; I'll be slightly surprised if they take McKinnon over him.

    It was a make up call for absolutely blowing a goaltender interference call on their first goal.

    Right, because its Handzus' fault though Ference threw him down into Rask, ok. Before that when he went down he loses the rebound and its all Bruins players.

    By they I meant the Flames, I'm pretty sure we'd be picking Mackinnon if we traded up and they wanted to guarantee that I'd say.

    Maybe he shouldnt be standing in the crease....... that a lone is pretty much a huge interference... or else everyone would be like HEY SUP lemme just stand in your area... making a screen outside of the crease is w/e but he was inside and thats a huge fuckn problem

    from what i see right there, handzus had tuuka rask blatantly tied up a few seconds before that that goal happened (not on the scoring play, but on the attempt before) which is in fact goaltender interference.

    Him falling into Rask isn't the GI. Him not allowing Rask to get back up and make the play is the GI, and that was simply a blown call on the refs part.

    Having watched this series and some of the Hawks / Kings one, there isn't a Chicago fan on the planet that should ever complain about refs. Not ever.
