NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted April 12, 2007 Magooo or not, anyone else see the other games? All the refs were horrible..playoff hockey and they were calling the smallest things. I don't like it, but as long as they're consistent. I can't stand when something is a penalty one minute, and not the next. That's way more frustrating than a tightly-called game.

Covenant 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2007 (edited) ..playoff hockey and they were calling the smallest things. Aren't they supposed to keep the same "strict" standards as the regular season? Anyhow, no matter, our PK is awesome, and our PP has been waiting all year for this opportunity to shine. Hey, beats the s*** out of the officiating in the NBA *Edit: I can't really believe that gametime is one hour. If it's like the Sens game, puck will drop very shortly after Karen belts out the anthem, which... if you care, CBC shows, and FSN does not. Nobody beats Lyndon Slewidge (sorry, butchered his name) @ Scotiabank though, amazing. Edited April 12, 2007 by Covenant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted April 12, 2007 At least in the overtimes they weren't calling silly penalties..but then again that got some fans very angry, calling everything and then calling nothing That's exactly my point. That's whats bad for the game. I'm leaving work now, and I'll catch you all in the GDT at game time. I won't post as much because I'll be paying extra close attention, but I'll be there.
