Round 1 — Out West
- Thread starter The Napkin
- Start date
And three years of dead money cap hell coming up with the Parise and Suter buyouts.
Huh? They’re up 2-0 and playing a tidy must-win road game without their best defenceman. IMO, they’re doing great.
And the refs robbed them of a goal for no reason
edit: And now the kings are right back in it when they shouldn't be
This right here. I mean, "fuck Evander Kane" is a decent guiding principle in general, but that was awful.
Find the video of the disallowed goal. Might be the worst call I've ever seen in any sporting event. If that happened against the Bruins I might literally stroke out. And I don't give a single shit about either one of these teams.
I might have missed it, but did they ever say what exactly they called? I'm not sure if the puck being whistled dead or goalie interference would have been a worse call, but it had to be one.
If we're talking about the one that Kane scored to make it 3-0 and they waved off, it was interference on Hyman (Edler helped him with a push). Woodcroft decided not to challenge.
That's the one. Woodcroft might have cost his team the series with his fecklessness on that one. Whatever, fuck EDM for getting Kane. I just hate NHL officiating.
Randy Hahn thought another penalty was called on Edmonton when Quick left the net to make it 6 on 4. Oof.
How has Goucher not been hired by ESPN nor TNT/TBS for the playoffs?

I miss living on the West Coast. This is a great game so far, and I'm not going to make it to the third period.
Goddamn, the stuff McDavid did to Dustin Brown that shift should be considered cruel and unusual.
Like, I'm actually glad I stayed up to see that live. Seriously amazing stuff.
Also, TIL Marco Sturm's on McLellan's staff for the Kings.

Also, tonight's series winning goals: Max Domi, Nick Paul, Cody Ceci.
Hockey is weird.

What kind of tricks will Bettman have to get the last warm weather Western Conference team into the second round.
Just a typical Sunday night in Calgary…
…still pretty tame compared to 2004, but it’s only the first round…

Damn I feel so bad for Oettinger
He deserved better
Can’t remember a better performance by a goalie who gave up 3
At least it was BC Johnny

And that’s 3 mountain time zone teams out of the 4 in the Western Semis
And those Flames jerseys are fire, literally

I forced myself to stay up for that one. One of the best playoff goaltending performances I've ever seen.
