HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 Let's look at two very big positives here: 1. Anaheim is not an intimidating place to play. They rival New Jersey in terms of how s***ty the atmosphere is. They also have many empty seats, like the Wings, but without good reasons. 2. Hasek is probably going to play out of his mind again because he allowed four goals. I'm not saying they were bad goals, but anytime he gives up four goals period, he usually plays great aftewards. Agreed on both counts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BuckeyeWingsfan80 209 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 The Ducks made no contact with Hasek until after the puck crossed the line. I don't want to call it a good goal, but it was perfectly legal and should have counted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seeinred 1,488 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 Which is why you are HERE and they are on the ice. Your opinion doesn't matter a damn The refs and officials in the booth (along with those in Toronto) do matter..... They made the right call, but it was the wrong call, if that makes sense. That's all I'm saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnybgood 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 wow, what about the countless AMAZING saves he's made so far this series? he was shoveled into the net, he did not "fall". to you. Like i already said i watched the tivo replay about 100 times. He fell into the net before anyone touched him. Nice job trying to come up with an excuse though guys but Hasek is inconsistent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e_mcgrath88 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 I can rationalize that the 1st one shoudln't have been a goal for a couple reasons, but it's just that - rationalizing. There is absolutely no ******* chance in hell that 2nd reviewed goal should have counted. I don't care if pushing in is reviewable or not, that goal was scored illegally. dont worry dude.. the guy isnt even a real Wings fan.. i cant believe he's back on this baord after he proclaimed the series over in game 4 against the sharks...

Offsides 21 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 Where was the Hasek retiring petition last game? Yeah, that is because he has been very, very good. That would be like saying Lidstrom should retire over one or two defensive mistakes. There's no logic in that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

datsyukismyfriend 4 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 Like i already said i watched the tivo replay about 100 times. He fell into the net before anyone touched him. Nice job trying to come up with an excuse though guys but Hasek is inconsistent well, he stole game one, so... the wings need to tighten down in their zone. the giveaways and errant passes are killing us. it's happened all year, so i'm not expecting a miracle, but at least a little smarter play in our end, please?? we are lucky we're so talented, not too many teams can give the puck away as much as we do and still win as much as we do. if the guys can just pull their ******* heads out of their asses we should be fine, but the could be a big if.

All of the Vezina candidates are all playing golf right now. I think that about says it all. Dom wants a bigger prize than another Vezina. He's not the problem here, I don't believe. I for one am encouraged that despite the efforts of refs and suspect plays by the Ducks, the Wings managed to find three goals. **faints** Maybe next game, they will all play 60 minutes and not just Dom, Lids and Zata.

philisides 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 I can difinitely understand why everyone is pissed with the officiating, but the Wings have yet to put together a decent effort, and until they do they are not going to get the calls. Anaheim play is not that impressive. The Wings should win the series... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Must Kill 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 you know we can even go back to the game winning goal for us in game one that was very bizare, good goal yes but s***ty looking, same for the goal hasek let in. hasek did all he could do and the ducks played smart and tried knocking it in and it worked. When it comes to playoff hockey you do anything you can for your team even if it means "bending" the rules. Lets face it guys if it was the other way around we be all on it and be riding on a high of 2 games lead on the ducks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

savaking72 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 ...oh welll! ...one question, what happened to the rule about not being able to push the goalie into the net while h has the puck? Even the annoucers said that Rob N. pushed him enough to force the puck over the line. Not that it matters now, but I am just curious about that one... When I saw that goal I thought the very same thing. They obviously threw out this and the obstruction rule. When we dump the puck in, they are constantly impeding our progress. The Ducks like it or not out played us. Most of the game was in our end. Our power plays were pathetic. We could never keep the puck in their zone. Our forecheck just sucked in this game. I am worried about the next game...we always suck out west on the first game. Jetlag, or the time change just screws us. Maltby looked pretty good in this game. I was laughing my ass off when he was sent into their bench! I thought that was the hit of the nite. His goal was the payback for that hit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dicksmack 33 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 I know the game is over but... To me the point of a video review is to get the call right. What I don't understand is, why have a two part system? Some calls are reviewable, some are not. I say if you're going to use video review, in an effort to make the right call let them all be subject to review. The reason the refs missed the fact that Rob N. pushed the Dom in the net is because they were looking to see if the puck was over the line or not. The video, showing the goalie was pushed in should then have veto power. The human element is still there making the judgment, it's just a more informed call.

He won us game 1, kepts us in the game tonight in the 1st period. The 3rd goal was absolute bulls***, and the final goal came from a lost faceoff (Draper), and a guy falling and losing his man (Cleary). There's about 20 guys on the team I'd look at before deciding to blame Hasek. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dw185 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2007 how about that lilja roughing call? that was not nearly as bad as the stuff the ducks were doing as a normal part of the game. either don't call garbage like that, or call everything that resembles it. The wings did play some piss poor hockey at times, but the officiating was just horrid once again. I feel the wings are still up against not only a decent team, but the refs as well. The refs just don't call ANYTHING consistently... No use complaining about it i suppose. On to game 3 where hopefully we can get some less biased officiating. Oh, and by the way, goaltender interference seems to not be called, so i say bert and homer start taking runs at giguere. Just a thought... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
