That Kronwall hit was magnificent! No leaving the feet, no dramatic follow-through, just a solid wall colliding with Hemsky.
-
Tough way to lose a point but oh well. Better to lose a S.O. to the oilers than van or chicago
-
Yeah I don't understand why a clock would have to sync during a period. Were talking about a 20 minute time period here not 20 days!
-
I was at the game and I have to say, both teams looked slow and uninspired. I guess were lucky that Calgary was the worse team tonight.
-
More like worst off season in wings history. Although I think you meant to say re-signs
-
What happened to Zetterberg's scoring touch?
AceInTheSleeve replied to Drake_Marcus's topic in General
I see babs has recently been experimenting with the ZDH line again, If he gives them some more opportunities I think Z will start to shine again. This has always been the perfect grinder-sniper-playmaker line combo, not sure why babs started splitting them so much up after 2008. -
I dunno but I get negged too. guess tattoos are a touchy subject, all I was doing was complimenting
-
VERY nice work on your tattoo, congrats. Stanley looks incredibly well done
-
The wings should never be blowing games like this to teams like the habs and the isles. It's unacceptable in every way. How are they gonna stay on top if they consistently take nights off against the leagues worst teams
-
So far so good, nash up 2 - 0 on chicago. Plus the pens just scored a ppg (caused by a malkin dive) to go up 1 - 0 on the blues and blues squander a pp with only 1 shot
-
So your definition of a better team IS the one who wins the 7 game series. So of course you conclude that 'the better team always wins' All orange tigers are orange...what a silly argument
-
Well 1 point is better than 2 for STL
-
are the blues any good in the shootout?
-
Damn...OT
-
I really hope the pens can end this before it goes to OT
-
STL losing their cool again...
-
Pens score! 2 - 0
-
Haha yeah I know I catch myself cheering for the blues by accident half the time. And yeah I agree that the preds are the lesser of two evils
-
Well you're right, no team is going to win a 7 game series playing pathetic hockey! That doesn't mean there haven't been upsets. How about Detroit getting swept by Anaheim in 03.
-
Yeah usually the better team will win a 7 game series, but not always. We also aren't talking about the teams blaming the refs, St. Louis did not blame the refs or any calls going against them for the loss last night. Of course no team is going to get all poopy-faced and blame the refs for the loss. But there are plenty of instances where refs make a bad call that does effect the outcome of the game, that is undeniable.
-
This isnt always true. Sometimes there is a legitimate blame on the refereeing, but not in this case. See Hossa's non-goal against ducks, or about 9 out of every 10 Holmstrom non-goals.
-
Its not interference if both players are challenging for the puck. Look at when kronwall got knocked on his ass earlier in the season challenging for a puck which led to a the GWG, cant remember who we were playing though.
-
I don't remember the play well enough to give an opinion on whether or not helm's hit was interference. I can't find a replay of the hit. But what about the play where Holmstrom had his stick slashed out of his hands? That is considered a penalty and there was no call on the play, so perhaps two wrong calls make a right? But I'd blame the Blues frustration for this loss, not the refs.

You are experiencing what is known as confirmation bias syndrome. Don't worry this happens to the best of us, and is a common occurrence when your favorite team loses a game.
