A2Y-Video - No Call, Penalty, Penalty Shot? What Do You Think?

You're the ref, you make the call.

I think it was shown last night very clearly that the fix was in for these two games. If I'm Stevie, I'm sending a video to the league.

What for? With OTT up for sale, don't you think it's the League itself who "ordered" such officiating?

It's a perfect call from the Draftkings board of the executives.

That was perfect defense IMHO

I think the first word that comes to mind is bull...

I think theyve scored 3 goals across these two games and even if this was a ref show, they werent good enough. Excuses at this time of year are for losers. They werent good enough. Time to reevaluate the deadline.

And yes, the officiating over these two games was extremely questionable, but that presumes the Wings deserved anything. They stunk, overall. 

Cigar-Nurse

Bad call. But the Fabbri game misconduct was worse. What was the infraction?

The Wings should've had a PP after the Kubalik goal, and instead go 4on4, and then they called this utter BS to tie the game, and continued to make weak calls until the game was out of hand. Someone should take the fine and call the officiating for what is was, especially the penalty shot. 


That said, you adjust your cup and play, and instead the Wings folded, 13-3 in a critical back to back that's on them, not a few cheap calls. 

RedMenace

It was a fucking joke call.

No way that was even a penalty, let alone a penalty shot.

The officiating in Ottawa these past two games was completely brutal, and you can't really be expected to beat the refs AND a bunch of crying "tough guys" who got away with murder.

rumbear

I'm speculating, of course, but Ima guessing that selling a Team in the playoffs would warrant a boost in price to the owners and <cough, cough> Lil Gary.... Ass.
