Game 1 at Tampa - Ride the Lightning

[LogansDad]

This game is fucking fixed. What a load of god damned bullshit.

 

[Reardon's Beard]

No way that stays. The puck knocked the fucking blade out.

 

[Obscure Name]

what the fuck

 

[Old Fart Tree]

I mean... what???

 

[FelixMantilla]

Just terrible bullshit by the officials

 

[patinorange]

I have never seen that.

 

[JCizzle]

These refs are a fucking JOKE. They stopped play for the leafs in that position at least once a game

 

[Lupe Whalewatch]

not sure theres a rule against that

 

[johnmd20]

I have never seen that.

Literally, I have never seen that.

 

[DJnVa]

I can't take 7 games of this shit.

 

[McDrew]

Next time take your mask off and throw it at the nearest referee

 

[Haunted]

Fuck these refs. Jesus.

 

[locknload]

Is this all the same ref!?!?!

 

[Detts]

There are no words

 

[McBride11]

Fucking horseshit. Blow that dead. Fuck you refs

 

[Old Fart Tree]

This does not bode well. Avoid the meltdown Tuukka.

 

[Reardon's Beard]

WHAT THE FUCK THAT STANDS ARE YOU KIDDING ME

 

[IdiotKicker]

Well that’s something new.

 

[OurF'ingCity]

That’s the refs literally just awarding a free goal to TB

 

[IdiotKicker]

On the plus side, fuck Tampa.

 

[Haunted]

Just unreal

 

[Maximus]

2 goals are enough gifts for the Bolts, refs

 

[Reardon's Beard]

Stab the fucking ref with the blade next time that'll get his attention

 

[DJnVa]

WHAT THE FUCK THAT STANDS ARE YOU KIDDING ME

Look, the issue is the penalty, not the no call with skate. There's no reason to blow the play dead. Just like announcer said, if skater does that he has to get off ice.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

I still can't believe we haven't seen the penalty that led to a power play goal. Not once. If that's not evidence of bullshit, I'm not sure what is.

A 4-1 game is 3-2 solely because of the refs.

 

[Marbleheader]

Get the next one. Fuck it.

 

[RSN Diaspora]

Beating the officials on top of beating Tampa will be sweet

 

[johnmd20]

This game should be 4-1. It's 3-2. Refs making their presence felt.

 

[FelixMantilla]

This game should be 4-1 right now

 

[LogansDad]

That’s the refs literally just awarding a free goal to TB

After literally stealing on from the Bruins.

A 4-1 game is 3-2 solely because of the refs.

Stop with this shit

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

Fix is fucking in.

 

[Carmine Hose]

Surprised they didn’t send Marchand to complete the fix

 

[Jordu]

Rask shouted and waved at the officials. They still missed it. There were three of them within 15 feet. So the goal stands.

They showed it up here. DeBrusk made a stick lift and the Lightning player’s stick went flying.

 

[Old Fart Tree]

Yeah. It should be 4-1. But... it isn't.

 

[Reardon's Beard]

Look, the issue is the penalty, not the no call with skate. There's no reason to blow the play dead. Just like announcer said, if skater does that he has to get off ice.

Goalies are different. If the goalie loses his mask they call it dead. It also resulted from a TB shot - so no, not convinced this wasn't a cataclysmic bullshit performance from the NHL referees from the call to the "goal."

 

[Boston Brawler]

If there is no written rule about losing a skate, I have no problem with not blowing the whistle. Tuukka should have gotten in the middle of the net, not freaked out, and attempted to freeze the puck.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Rask shouted and waved at the officials. They still missed it. There were three of them within 15 feet. So the goal stands.

Meier looked to acknowledge it, he just didn’t give a shit

 

[FL4WL3SS]

The refs may be incompetent, but there's no fix. Cut the shit.

 

[Ed Hillel]

They showed it up here. DeBrusk made a stick lift and the Lightning player’s stick went flying.

That’s a penalty?

 

[LogansDad]

THAT WAS THE FUCKING PENALTY???!!!!

 

[Boston Brawler]

Pretty weak penalty

 

[DJnVa]

Goalies are different. If the goalie loses his mask they call it dead. It also resulted from a TB shot - so no, not convinced this wasn't a cataclysmic bullshit performance from the NHL referees from the call to the "goal."

I mean, okay.

But that's not the rule. So there's no way they can take the goal away.

 

[McDrew]

Oh shut the fuck up Milbury

 

[Lupe Whalewatch]

Rask shouted and waved at the officials. They still missed it. There were three of them within 15 feet. So the goal stands.

missed what? why would the whistle blow there? is it a rule? Ive never heard of it if it was.

 

[Carmine Hose]

Milbury makes a point. What Rask and Marchand did fat exceeded the calls on Pasternak and DeBrusk

 

[FL4WL3SS]

Oh shut the fuck up Milbury

He was only pointing out the inconsistencies.

 

[RetractableRoof]

Finally showed Debrusk slash at the TB stick. Didn't see much there, but by the letter of the law..

 

[Reardon's Beard]

I mean, okay.

But that's not the rule. So there's no way they can take the goal away.

All good. Let's beat these fuckers into the ground.
