... hard to win a game called like that :(

That was a make-up call in response to all of the holding the Red Wings have been getting away with.

Hawks have edge in team speed, so Wings try and counter with hands/stick.

Bahhh! That call was weak sauce.

Penalty? Maybe. Penalty shot? No freakin way!!

That call was a game changer my friend! There was absolutely nothing about that play to justify a penalty shot and the only interference committed by that tap on the stick/pants was in fact the call by the official :(

What I find most disturbing is the obvious real time silencing of criticism by the TV announcers and players. Exactly how has the NHL obtained such obedience in the face of their clear incompetence :?:

30 second mark on vid, he clearly hit right hand with stick...but I'll concede the penalty shot as a bit overkill.

Game changer?, Frolik scored on that penalty shot with the same move he was fouled on...probably would have scored anyways.

My point is that Frolik was in fact NOT fouled or interfered with. That tap on the stick that you refer to even if called a slashing penalty would have been a weak/phantom/questionable call, but the penalty shot I will maintain is simply criminal ...
 
No problem, I'll just dial-up the Commish here and ask that sticks to the hands from behind be made a legal defensive play.

It was a penalty.


It was a borderline penalty at best. Refs typically swallow their whistles in situations like this and allow the players to decide the game. Only the most egregious infractions are called in the waning minutes of a close playoff game. This asshat not only CHOSE to call the penalty, but then decided to be extra dickish and call the penalty shot.

The Wings have every right to be pissed over that call.

Having said that, they played like shit in the third period and didn't deserve to win the game anyway.
 
GB should have a reformat of the ref's for next season. set new standards reguarding letting a play play out, and ignore minor infractions. im not saying not to call penalties, but rather let the game play on and stop wiht the bull shit nit picking calling penalties thats been rampant for while now.
 
So... I'm not trying to be negative but I know most of my friends have been thinking it while some have actually said it but I'm seriously worried about losing tonight.

Many bowls will be smoked in hopes that the wings can pull through while in Chicago.
 
^^^ I was still scared shitless at 3-1. Today I feel much better about winning game 7 than I have been the last week though. lol. No reason why.
I'll throw out a 3-2 wings prediction. I wouldn't put any money on it though. lol.
 
Game #7 is tonight at 8pm and the winner goes on to play the LA Kings for the Western Conference finals.
