Detroit fans must be irate

edit: proof of 1 minute delay, aside from me watching both feeds live:

The surreal scene played out after the Flyers and Capitals slogged out much of the third period 5 on 5 — and perhaps a minute after Detroit went to overtime in Montreal, eliminating Philadelphia. Tortorella may not have known his team had no chance of winning when he sent Ersson to the bench and opened the net for Oshie.

[BahlDeep]

They weren't eliminated

 

[DearDiary]

Their season is over, Torts did whatever he wanted

 

[Mad Dog Tannen]

Yeah. No kidding. They weren’t eliminated yet. What is this thread?

 

[Leafs87]

Did this to ensure Pittsburgh is eliminated

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

They weren't eliminated

They were, Wings game was going to OT tied before they pulled

 

[Apex Predator]

Did the flyers know they were eliminated? They have to win in regulation to have a shot at the playoffs.

 

[El Travo]

They weren't eliminated

Detroit game went to Overtime, so yes they were.

 

[Rsswmu]

They weren't eliminated

They pulled the goalie at least a minute after Detroit went to OT. They were.

 

[Kingsfan1]

They didn’t know Red Wings had scored . Im absolutely shocked by Red Wings accomplishing what they have but man what a back breaker for them

 

[tarheelhockey]

Detroit scored with 3 seconds left to knock Philadelphia out of the playoffs

At the exact same moment, Philadelphia allowed the Caps to score an ENG and knock Detroit out of the playoffs

 

[Reality Check]

Not irate.

But that is rather bullshit I must say.

 

[Il Stugotz]

Not over yet

Am I getting that right?

It was a minute after im watching both

 

[MVP of West Hollywd]

It happened pretty close together. When looking at Detroit tying it seemingly in last second, there would be a chance of a disallowed goal or something.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

LMAO, I love it because it eliminates the Pens

 

[Filthy Dangles]

This is dumb

Flyers needed a regulation win to even have a chance. They don’t give a f*** what was going on in Montreal

 

[northeastern]

I'm assuming the flyers didn't know they were eliminated, but if that did that's savage

Detroit getting a point eliminated them

 

[BahlDeep]

They were, Wings game was going to OT tied before they pulled

So what if they weren't aware?

 

[Hammman]

Do you think the Flyers are watching the box scores while in the middle of a f***ing game?

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

So what if they weren't aware?

It was a minute before, is that plausible? Idk but it's interesting for sure

 

[The Expert]

lol that was hilarious.

 

[BB88]

They weren't eliminated

Were at that point

 

[Blue and Green]

There was a full minute of play in the Flyers-Caps game between the preceding faceoff and the empty net goal. Anyone trying to blame Tortorella is talking nonsense.
