Seeing this game makes me think... I'm surprised we don't see more people complaining and bitching about games like this where a team takes the lead and dares to keep playing. Especially in the age of ultra "politically correct" extremism, where people think that nobody should be made to feel bad or be offended for any reason.

Makes me think back to the 07-09 Wings when we were dominating opponents, and how the media would crucify the Wings if they went up by 4 and didn't either just give up and play defense the rest of the game or let the other team get a "catch up" goal or two so they would feel better. If the Wings even dared to keep playing (god forbid scoring another goal) back then after going up 4, they be accused of showboating and torn completely apart the next day in the press.

What actually happened to the ice? (I haven't been listening to the commentary)

The ice was fine the first two periods, what could happen to possibly make it so bad that they are talking about cancelling the game now???

NY feed showed a replay of the zamboni going over the socket that the net pegs sit in and dragging something, causing a huge gouge in the ice as the zamboni continued up the middle.

someone is in trouble. Zamboni caught a marsch peg (anchors the goal net in the holes) and dragged it onto the ice, causing the damage
