That was so offsides, he did not gain control until after he crosses the line

Let's not be greedy lol

Just hang on to the point! I'll take it

Holy hell call the trip, that was really blatant

Can that scrolling score display at the bottom take up any more room?! It's not even using the full display....

Just need to get one before the second period ends.

They have one of the worst goal songs in the league lol It's up there with Chelsea dagger

Nyquist took a brutal crosscheck

Did they call that a trip?!

Lol the same thing was happening to deke earlier in that shift. The refs are very selective tonight

Upset that I had to give up my tickets to this game, because I have the flu (I think). I was really looking forward to some original 6 hockey.

Holy crap just block the shot. Be fully dedicated to it, and not wishy washy.

Sorry I was only reading the first part, I stand corrected...good goal I don't know what it is about our defenders, and pushing playes into the net/howard, but it feels like it's happening on a daily basis.

The rule says nothing about the "actions" of the defending player. If it stated those words directly than I would say good goal. The way the rule is written it leaves it open for interpretation, so basically it's a wash. We can debate it over and over, and we're both right. I've seen it go the other way plenty of times. Where the league fails is they leave the rule open for interpretation. I for one don't want a ref interpreting a rule to decide a stanley cup finals game.

The rule states smith has to push it off deliberately or accidentally, smith did not do that. It says nothing about pushing a player into the net. This is where the NHL leaves the rule open for interpretation. Make it black or white. By that rule smith did nothing wrong.

I thought the call was BS. If there was no goal on the play smith would not have been given a penalty for Delay of game. I see the rule as a player has to push the net off directly, which would result in a delay of game penalty. In this instance smith is making a hockey play and the net comes off. I'm really starting to hate the NHL and all these rules they leave up for interpretation, nothing is black and white. On a side note since when can they review stuff like is the player pushed or not. I've seen plenty of calls were it was called goaltender interference, and the player was pushed into the goalie. On the replay they just looked for if contact was made with the goalie or not.

Lol NBC don't defend that ref, it was the wrong call. They basically said good job on making a quick call and sticking with it. NHL officiating is at an all time low and the league is doing nothing about it.

Shoot the puck!how much time do you think is left in the game!?

More crap after the whistle, refs letting it go

I'm not going to rip on Howard, but I'm starting to notice a lot of those spectacular saves he has had to make lately are caused by a horrible rebound and his positioning.

Wow so much went wrong on the at play, even Howard with an awful rebound. Get it back Gus!

That was a crazy tip, no chance

Lol bad calls don't always even out. Remember those games the wings played against the hawks, and the hawks were called for zero penalties! The wings were called for every little minor infraction. It's OK to think your team is getting shafted by the refs, because it happens sometimes.

Hehe against suter too, that's just dirty

I feel some ticky tac call is coming against the wings
