Brutal. I think the only thing worse than the call was the subsequent PK. It's funny....I saw a comment somewhere along the lines of "Is it the refs fault Vegas couldn't kill a penalty?" - huh? Ummm....no....but.... 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e_prime 1,936 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 Don’t love the call, but when you allow the refs to make a judgement call based on “severity of the infraction” ...and there’s blood on the ice... well, this is what you get. Aside from that, where were the penalty killers for FIVE MINUTES? Where was a time out call after the second or third goal? You then came back and scored to force OT. What happened after that? Oh right, you didn’t score and the other team did. 1 kliq reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kliq 3,755 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 Call was definitely harsh, but to let 4 goals in during a 5min span is on Vegas. I would have a much different opinion if it was a 1 goal game, the loss is on them. 1 F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's not the point here though. Your comment "maybe it should have been 2 instead of 5" - can't agree with that, there is no "maybe", there is zero argument for a 5 min major there, zero. I'm livid about the call and result thereafter....can't imagine how angry I'd be right now if I was a Vegas fan. I'm tempted to search around the web to find a Vegas fan board and see if people are losing their minds. It was a completely unnecessary cross check. IMO. Pavelski did not have the puck. He was completely facing away from the puck so there is no way he was getting the puck back. He was not in any way directly involved in the play. Eakin had no reason to do what he did. It was stupid. It could have been called as a 2 minute minor. I will concede that the fact Pavelski was injured probably increased the severity of the penalty. 5 hours ago, The 91 of Ryans said: If I were a Vegas fan I'd be fuming that they let San Jose back in this series after being up 3-1. Reasons why VGK has no reason to complain. 1. They were up 3-1 in the series and had 2 previous chances to close it. They didn't. 2.They gave up 4 PPG on one PP. Ridiculous PK. They only had to stop one of them to win. They didn't. 3. They could have still won the game in OT. They didn't. If Vegas wants something to complain about, there are 3 right there. Stop blaming the officiating. It had very little to do with it. 2 amato and chaps80 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Epic meltdown. Allowing 4 PP goals in 5 min? Right there you don't deserve to win the game. I must say I enjoyed it though.

Euro_Twins 4,475 Report post Posted April 25, 2019 I dont understand what the problem is? In real life if you injure someone especially using blunt force, it's a crime, and the worse they are hurt the worse the punishment is. In hockey if a guy gets injured because of a stupid careless action, he should have a more severe penalty. Do you think bertuzzi would have gotten suspended for a full season, sued, lost a lot of money if he hadn't hurt Moore? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think bertuzzi would have gotten suspended for a full season, sued, lost a lot of money if he hadn't hurt Moore? Here's the facts: 1. They thought he crossed checked him in the face and then saw blood and injury, that's why he got 5 min 2. It wasn't even a hard cross check, it was more of a shove with the stick...across the chest, nowhere near the head...he lost balance and then got caught up with another SJ player and fell on his head....skate came near the head as well, haven't seen a good replay to see if he got caught with that. 3. If you take every referee on the planet and give them the benefit of replay, not a single one calls a 5 min major there. 4. Vegas has every right to complain about the call, but they should never have been in that position in the first place and have no one to blame but themselves. They had a 3-0 lead, even if the penalty kill could have kept it to 2 goals against there....which is still a crappy PK...they would have been in good shape. 2 Dabura and krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheelchairsuperhero 1,453 Report post Posted April 25, 2019 I thought Stastny did more than Eakin tbh and I would've been fine with him getting a major. Literally sticks his leg out behind an off balance player. Hate to see someone with zero chance to defend himself get seriously injured like that, even if it's that goof Pavelski. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,793 Report post Posted April 25, 2019 Looks like two of the refs from game 7 (O'Halloran and Furlatt) are not officiating the second round. I guess that's the league's way of admitting the call was botched. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
