That was a really bad challenge. One of the worst I’ve seen. Not sure what Cooper and staff were seeing there

 

[Bounces R Way]

Dumb challenge from Cooper but Bennett was the king of disallowed goals in Calgary so I was 50/50.

 

[HockeyVirus]

No, B2B cups earns him the right to have some struggles.

I figured but was hoping he would be if the Leafs fire Keefe lol

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Ridiculous challenge. The defenceman blasted him into the goalie and you challenge it? Right.

Unless he obviously picked up speed and was barely touched it will never be overturned.

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Sir Hagel isn't a defenseman, no matter how many times that espn ref says he is

It’s amusing anyone thinks he is a DMan

Amateur hour at ESPN

Lmao No the leafs can’t have Cooper.

But the head coach, like PoMo, doesn't have time to run the PP or make video calls. That was probably another person's call. Maybe Cooper didn't even see the play.

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

Bennett giveth…

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Tampa needs a big PP here....Florida been all over them.

 

[RedRocking]

Tampa, defensively, ain’t what they used to be

 

[Nikki Potnick]

Bennett just can't help himself.

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Call to challenge probably came from Someone else. I doubt cooper would be that reckless. He has been around the barn.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Sweet ass f*** moses what are the Bolts doing

 

[robertocarlos]

He is a worthless piece of shit.

I did not like that moment. Does the ref think he's the star of the show.

That’s a good point. The Nucks chose not to challenge correctly last night and you could see Tocchet emphatically speaking to the video coach to determine whether they should challenge or not

 

[Nikki Potnick]

As someone who has been trained/coached by some NHL refs, yes. Some of them love that shit, "it's their time to shine". I always thought it was very cringy.

 

[T REX]

TB has no answer for FL

Could be a sweep

 

[HockeyVirus]

Tampa, defensively, ain’t what they used to be

They never were this crazy defensive team, just decent. Vasi has just become human in the playoffs for a few years now

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

This PP is arse

 

[Felidae]

That Stamkos shot was a godamn missile.

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Sweet ass f*** moses what are the Bolts doing

We suck again

 

[T REX]

FL>>>>>>tampa

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Tampa, defensively, ain’t what they used to be

Well we are currently missing Sergachev

 

[T REX]

1 SOG lol - the suck is here
