WCF GAME 3 GDT: Red Wings 3 at Blackhawks 4 (OT)

[BuckeyeWingsfan80 209]

The NHL is a 3rd tier league.

That's why the horrific officiating doesn't receive bigger comment.

That and because the NBA offciating is so horrendous too.

f*** the NHL.

[55fan 5,133]

Good heavens. I thought we could beat them with one hand tied behind our back, but the rest of the body needs to be on the ice, not the box.

Come on!

hahaha Havlat... LIGHTS OUT

[Wings_Rule_1010 4]

With the kronwall penalty it just looks liek the refs assessed the penalty based on the outcome: a hawk seemingly unconscious. At worst it was a two-minute. Just ridiculous.

And awesome, lets test one of the worst pk's in the playoffs... again.

This game is quickly becoming a joke...

[Stiffy 0]

Okay, I take back everything I ever said about paranoid reactions to bad calls. This is pathetic. The announcer is saying he saw no penalty for Kronval and I can't see it either. I guess if people get hurt you get a penalty. Given this logic, I want a game misconduct for whoever shot Datsyuk's foot.

[Datsyerberger 279]

1st period = 10-11 minutes on the PK. Good ******* game.

[EuroTwin 240]

What the f*** is this ******* f***?

Do we have any defensemen left?

[good morning 10]

We will spend OVER HALF OF THIS PERIOD ON THE PENALTY KILL.

[Wings_Rule_1010 4]

Call some interference refs. But that would require the refs to call something for the wings and not against.

[teebo 22]

can we get new refs in at intermission? this is a joke..

[Vincanni 1]

I'm turning this game off, f*** the NHL and their completely worthless refs. Chicago gets 11 minutes of PP time to the Wings 0 when it should be even at 2 penalty minutes a piece, Chicago with 4 at the very most. No offense to Chicago fans and Havlat's safety but he better not see another second of ice time this game to even come close to justifying that absolute joke of a penalty.

[wmubronco420 25]

and why doesnt versus ever show the penalties?

[ZETTERBERGPWN 2]

when its the hawks they dont call .. thanks again

[Wings_Rule_1010 4]

11 minutes of penalty kill in 20 minutes of play is outragious. I am surprised not to be down by more than two.

[WingZNut13 99]

This is sad. You can tell the NHL doesn't ant the Red Wings to win. This game has been total bulls***!

[BuckeyeWingsfan80 209]

great a scrum.

Now they'll make up a penalty where Detroit plays without a goalie the entire 2nd period.

[puckloo39 5,686]

and why doesnt versus ever show the penalties?

because then they would have to actually show the Wings?

[Guest mindfly]

This is a ******* joke, what the hell did kronwall do?

Detroit shorthanded the whole period, you know I knew this would happend.... it's freakin sad, the level on the refs in nhl..

[Wings_Rule_1010 4]

My reaction to the 5 minute penalty: anger

My reaction to the 2 minute Ericsson penalty: laughter

This game is a joke.

[Guest E_S_A_D]

perfectly called game

[Datsyerberger 279]

Well, if nothing else, only about 10 minutes of even strength play so far and only 2 goals against. At least our PK is looking good.

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

The refs are screwing us, but that doesn't excuse the Wings from that horrible start that they had.

It's been a recurring problem and for once Ozzie didn't bail them out.

[titanium2 867]

Alright everyone, settle down. They're only down by 2 with 2 periods left. They have time. Just keep on keepin on.
