nater 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 Not if it happens to somebody wearing red. You got that right. Kind of sad that you are out played so badly that you have to resort to the crap you have whined about all series. Bunch of pansies. Whatever, clear the zone next time boys!

pjgj13 30 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 The Wings should have had AT LEAST 6 more power play attempts. The refs screwed (can't really say fuqed) over AGAIN. Let's beat the bastards in s***tsburg!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pavyaz19 1 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 Plus the phantom trip on Datsyuk early in the game... and the two goalie interference penalties were questionable. Maybe you call that in periods one or two, but not in overtime. I say this because, clearly tripping, punching in the back of the head, hooking, holding, and interference are not called in OT. Yet, magically, goalie interference is... even if you are forced into the goalie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C-Dub 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 Refs didn't decide this game by any stretch of the imagination. However, it should be noted that the first 2 OTs were the worst two periods of refeering in the entire playoffs. Even NBC said that those were absolutely outrageous calls.

pavyaz19 1 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 I wish I could be in the referee's lockerroom after the game. I imagine it going something like this... ref #1 "wow, that was a long one... good thing that little asian-looking guy caught our favorite team's player in the face... if there wasn't any blood, I may have drawn some criticism." ref #2 "Haha, what are you talking about? You know the B-man has your back... we made all the right calls in his mind... so we both still have a job, duh. Haha, criticism, pfff." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoalieManPat 1,007 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 Its playoff hockey. That stuff is gonna happen. The key to drawing penalties tho is to keep skating. Detroit did not start skating hard until the 3rd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, it should be noted that the first 2 OTs were the worst two periods of refeering in the entire playoffs. Even NBC said that those were absolutely outrageous calls. Nothing "decides" the game. It's a team effort. It's not Ozzie's fault, it's not Franzen's fault... but each person on the ice plays a major role in the outcome. Tonight, the referees played a major role. They decided to put the whistles away except if a goalie was touched or blood was drawn by a stick. If they officiate the game like a real hockey game, the Wings are on the Power Play at least 3 times in OT... AT LEAST. So, did they decide it? no, but the term man-"advantage" is key. They gave the Pens the advantage... therefore, costing us major power play time and most likely the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is fact that they did say that... BUT, I also work in the entertainment business and know that some things are said for certain reasons. Did that joker Pierre REALLY hear that??? Either way, come on, in the heat of battle, how could they not complain about the non-calls. But I'm talking about after the game... you're not going to hear the coaches or players complain.

EuroTwinLove40 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 You know...at the beginning of overtime it seemed clear that the refs weren't about call any penalties on anyone. They were just going to let them play, which would have been totally fine with me. If they're not going to call anything -whatever, cool. What reeeeeeeeally makes me upset is when they're letting people on both teams get away with blatant trips, hooks, interference, etc.. and then randomly pick one incident of a minor hook or whatever and penalize that. If you're going to let them get away with everything, fine. But you can't just pick certain times to call minor s*** and let the rest (major stuff) go. NOT COOL. It's not the only reason why we lost, but it certainly didn't help. Don't even get me started on the "goalie interferences". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
