Bad week for NHL Zebras

[Mike Huntertz]

Just witnessed Toews goalie interference, the goal tender instigated the contact?

Just one of a ton of bad calls...offsides in Pitt being the worst.....I usually figure it goes both ways and it does.
Just some real brutally terrible callls.....for and against my position. No whine.



Ref has a tough spot but this 1st week they look ....not so good.....

the difference is in the NHL there are "makeup calls"

expect CHI to be 5 on 4 the rest of the game

Blues are getting away with murder over here, and I'm not talking about "extracurricular activities" that are just part of the intensity of the playoffs. I have never seen any ref crew ignore such an absurd amount of blatant runs on guys, trips and punches thrown in the middle of play, often with the refs looking straight at it.

I'm talking about when Steen extends his leg and trips Moore at center ice after a faceoff in the 3rd - there's nothing yet going on in play, the refs have nothing else to look at, yet they swallow their whistles. Last time I checked a trip is a penalty, even when it happens during a faceoff. It's disgusting. Or maybe when Andy Mac runs down Galiardi in open ice and flips him over, again a trip, and nothing. Yet Galiardi checks a guy who has possession of the puck - oh, that's a charge now. Just horrible officiating. Can't say the Sharks didn't have opportunities to score 5-on-5 but the discrepancy between what the refs call on the Sharks vs what they let go in the Blues' favor is sickening.

Another terrible call....who ever you played.
Smith is a shoo in for Italian soccer...........oh I am dead......call a major.
Okay.............good............... now I am okay.
Just put a phuckin Tutu on the goal tenders

BS

I guess the rule if you stop play because of an "injury" you have to go off the ice doesn't apply to goalies? Pretty funny. "OMG MY FACE! NOOOOOO IM DEAAAAAAAD. Oh shit i'm good, shake it off."

Did you hear that the year after the lockout a team lead the league with over 600 pp opportunities and this year the most was around 400?

I pointed that out as well, but I think PIT has a better chance than the Canucks
