Miller Brew 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) I'm convinced 100% that the NHL is rigged. There is no way that puck conclusively went across the line. Non-calls in Dallas' favor Howard interfered with. His stick was held. The NHL is worse than WWF when Hulk Hogan went bad. NHL is a f'king JOKE! EDIT: for grammar. I'm so pissed. I'm really bummed because I thought NHL was suppose to be a real sport. Not fiction. Life is no longer reality... in the NHL Edited January 16, 2010 by Miller Brew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CenterIce 83 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 The only thing I can think that they called was that Howard had to reach in with his glove, but you can't really tell where the puck is, in relation to his glove. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus's Garden 147 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 What are the Wings, 1-for-1000 in replays all time? This is just ridiculous, it makes so sick to have a game decided like that. Just a blatant screw job. There is NO justification for that call. None. Absolutely none. This replay system is such a pile of s***. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miller Brew 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) Has to be 100% conclusively across the line. It was not proven over the line. Brad May was robbed against a good goal last year... NHL is worse than WWF Oh, you can hold the goalie from making a save now? edit. they just said on FSN that toronto couldn't see it across the line, one ref called no goal the other ref thought it was a goal, so therefore the ref who 'thought' it was a goal overrules everyone else. How much money did he have on the game? That's what I would like to know. IT's RIGGED! Edited January 16, 2010 by Miller Brew Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Broken 16 381 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) I keep thinking that the refs can't possibly be as bad as they seem... but they really are THAT bad. Edited January 16, 2010 by Broken 16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green Wing 26 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 Incompetence is one thing... there's something innocent in incompetence... but the sort of s*** that's been happening reeks of 'intent'. Total screwjob. Like I said in the gameday thread, surely the Wings are entitled to see the video evidence that was used to overturn that ref's decision? (of course I doubt it exists). I wish teams would make more of a stink about this type of stuff. Disgraceful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tommy_Like_Wingy 25 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 If Howard is letting Ott of all people get a puck even near the line he deserves the goal. The only ones who screwed the Wings over were themselves. We can't give up leads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 5,131 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 Is anyone even surprised by this? Of course the NHL can change the rules in the middle of the game, this goes back to Malkin's instigator in game 2 last season, as soon as the NHL realized that by it's own ruling that Malkin would be forced to serve a 1 game suspension, thus all but handing us another back to back Stanley Cup Championship, the NHL changed the ruling on the ice to NOT instigating. And this once again, the NHL allows to refs ruling to be overturned because this ruling benefits them. My God, that ref' head was so far in the net he almost blasted himself as he came around the net! Nobody can tell me that puck actually crossed the line, he knows it wasn't in, Howard knows it wasn't in, from what we are hearing now, the NHL knows it wasn't in, but went with the other guys (ref & linesmen) opinion that they believed it was in. Forget about the ref who's head was further over the crease than the puck! Maybe we should go to computer chips in the red line and puck to signal goals, nah, then NHL could just trigger the chip to go off whenever they wanted to. This NHL has become a huge farce. If I were Ilitch, I would be hoppin mad and start putting my money elsewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In fact that proves that NHL is deciding games. It has to stop. Wings should refuse to play for the rest of the year.

Berry 2 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 Wow... just wow. Is someone able to find a snapshot that shows the puck after the line??? I'd like to know who, in Toronto, decided to allow that goal !!!!

bdavis 28 Report post Posted January 16, 2010 I agree with you Miller Brew, it is frustrating as hell seeing this type of s*** (s*** describes it best) happen. I love the game but I don't like how the league is being run. I thought about bitching to them (writing to the league), but they aren't going to give a s*** what anyone is bitching about... The only thing that will make them change their ways is if they start going into the red, unfortunately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
