12/31: WTF is a “Red Wing”?

[NAR29996]

I looked it up.

I’m baffled.

Did you accidentally delete the part where it says "except where it involves the Boston Bruins"?

I looked up the rule in less time than it took Toronto to make the call. The league’s explanation should be some industrial grade BS.

Haggerty tweet: Per the NHL, "it was determined that the actions of Brandon Carlo contributed to Detroit’s Michael Rasmussen’s stick making contact with Jeremy Swayman’s glove outside the crease and therefore, did not constitute goaltender interference." The Carlo part was not announced on ice.

This is not what I saw. I saw Rasmussen’s stick hit Carlo’s & Swayman’s pad & helmet. Gross.

 

[Jordu]

Wow, the league was quick with the BS.

 

[Jordu]

Charlie! Yeah!

 

[Murby]

COYLE!!!!

 

[NAR29996]

Justice

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Suck it, refs.

 

[Salem's Lot]

FUCK YEAH!!!

 

[barclay]

Looks like its under review. Charlie went to Weymouth High

Yeah. Not what they said. BS.

 

[NAR29996]

Yeah. Not what they said. BS.

It's also not what happened

 

[ColdSoxPack]

It's also not what happened

Carlo did no such thing.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Yeah. Not what they said. BS.

It's also not what happened

Yup, it's trying to justify it after the fact.

 

[Curt S Loew]

It's also not what happened

Which is why they didn't say it. Until after.

 

[barclay]

Yeah. Not what they said. BS.

The league got caught and offered an alternate explanation as a result. Problem is that the latter is equally unconvincing and transparently a lie. It seems that they they think we're stupid. I hope the Bruins FO pursues this. Hard to be a fan of the NHL when this happens time and again (see the non-call on the baseball swing to Freddy's head).

Edit: it should not be forgotten that the Wings got a PP as a result. The call should've been no goal and grounds exist for the B's then getting a PP.

I like that they realized the original reason was bullshit and then scrambled to come up with another bullshit reason. I do admire the commitment.

At some point, the team has to start eating some penalty dollars and airing it out.

That has to come at the President/Ownership level.

 

[Cotillion]

Refs are going to keep letting this after bullshit go until they decide to call a Bruin for it and give a power play to Detroit.

Right. The whole thing is BS.

 

[mostman]

Agreed. I’m sure they are working on this behind the scenes, but it’s not working. I mean, here you have the league office straight up lying their ass off. Drag it out into the sunlight.

 

[Murby]

That has to come at the President/Ownership level.

And Cam Neely is no Mario Lemieux

 

[ColdSoxPack]

I sense this is more the usual officiating incompetence than intentionally hosing the Bruins.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Dive

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Looked like a dive.

 

[barclay]

That was hardly definitive on Charlie (if not a dive) and certainly not something you call after the goalie scandal

 

[OfTheCarmen]

There's our makeup call....

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Good kill.

 

[Jordu]

Jake!

 

[Murby]

Fuck. Yes. Justice.

 

[McDrew]

Holy shit Jake.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

BOOM

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

What a goal!

 

[patinorange]

Holy shit Jake.

What a play.

 

[Jordu]

Jake hooked and then tripped and still finds the net. Beautiful.

 

[Salem's Lot]

FUCK YEAH!!!!

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Jake got hooked and tripped there and still scored.

 

[mostman]

Hooking. Tripping. Fucking NHL. Eat shit.

 

[barclay]

They were not going to call the obvious trip, were they?

edit: but they call, that?????? HOLY SHIT!!

 

[The Mort Report]

Jake was also hooked on that getting out of the zone, no call

 

[scottyno]

There was no hand up to call the blatant trip right?

 

[McDrew]

He shot that puck at the empty net while fully horizontal 3 feet above the ice. I will repeat my "holy shit"

 

[LogansDad]

LOL they weren't even going to call the trip.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Now they'll call that one, of course.

 

[Dewey's 'stache]

Eat it Red Wings

 

[mostman]

Lol

 

[McDrew]

The Detroit broadcast noted that there was a hand up for a tripping call drawn by Debrusk when he scored.

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

And now they call it.

What a laughable league

 

[Salem's Lot]

Another ducking dive
