I agree 100%, that WAS a goal !!!!!! Soooo why wasn't the call reversed with the replay used ?????? dam well should have been IMHO... Plus...the questionable NON calls by the officials would have / could have given the Leafs a couple more PP chances, perhaps another win. Certainly makes you wonder about the rigging and betting on the sports ! Crist...there's a GD betting commercial or three of em every commercial break !!! Nuthin like driving it down our throats !

Yep saw lots of hits after the whistle but no interference or charging called.
Betting/ gambling is outta control for sure and very easy to bribe officials
I always laugh about the commercials about “ gambling responsibly “ you know buy more lotto tickets so you can win big $$$$ then gamble responsibly That’s our great government TAX US TO DEATH then try to take what little we have left by other means.

Yea. I think it is deplorable that the government run lotteries run adds glorifying and encouraging gambling! But then, we wouldn't want to trample on anyone's freedom now would we!
Effectively lotteries are just taxes on dumb people. And Yes, I occasionally buy a ticket on Lotto Max and on the QEII lottery. Stupid of me! So far over the last say 15 years years I'm down about $3k. At least I can afford it.
But hey, dream to the max right.

You have to think more gambling will not help maintain the integrity of the NHL!! Hiw can it? Money affects peoples morals. Plain and simple.
They should be forced to use more than one camera angle on every close call and/or when a team demands it. Gane results should be changed or the game replayed if it can proven a bad call changed the result.
I always hated the fact that they would pretty much stop calling penalties late in a game or in overtime. You cannot tell me teams don't take advantage of that. To me, a euke us a rule at ANY point in any game.

Sooo we have another US of A Lord Stanley ritual. Our remaining hopes were dashed by the Golden Knights who out played, out scored, out shot the Oilers. Should see some good fast hockey with these next 2 series and a great finale !

Yep they were my team after my habs didnot make it

No surprise there. Anyone bets on a Canadian team to win the cup, deserves to lose their money... lol. I said Vegas and Carolina in the final, with Carolina winning the cup. I predicted that before the playoffs even started. Still a ways to go, and anything could happen. Maybe with this being the year of the online betting ... we'll see the cup go to Vegas ??

LOL @ BM.....I was JUST thinking the exact same thing !!! who da F knows in this day and age ! Really.

Panthers all the way ?? I think so !

Tkachuk is on fire !!
