Officially, the Admirals won tonight 3-2 over the Wilkes Barre / Scranton Penguins in a shoot out.
Now the real unvarnished story of how the Admirals should have won in regulation, but got cheated by the Baby Pens and the so called officials.
Where to begin? Tom K is a total puss! He jumps Granberg from behind. Granberg has his gloves on. Tom K is punching him repeatedly. Granberg gets one glove off and punches Tom K one time.Tom K goes down! Tom K goes down! Tom K goes down! Tom K couldn’t take my dead grandmother in a fair fight. Nothing has changed since 2004. He was a no good back jumping SOB then and he STILL is! Tom K gets no extra 2 minutes for starting a fight. What is wrong with these refs?
These refs were bad! How bad you ask? This bad!!!!!!!
From the Admirals Roundtable:"
“With 1:21 left in the third period, Anthony Peters skated to the bench for an extra Penguin attacker. The Penguins were able to take advantage of the 6-on-5 situation as Josh Jooris tied the game at two with just 39.3 seconds remaining in regulation.”
Very little of that is true!
Here is the TRUTH! Peters skated towards his bench. Peters saw that an Admiral might get to the puck first instead of the right defenseman. He stopped to play the puck just above the left face off circle. He passed the puck to the MAN WHO CAME OFF THE BENCH TO REPLACE HIM! That was SEVEN WBS skaters on the ice! None of the 4 dolts on the ice noticed this. The crowd at the south end was screaming too many men! Too many men! Skater #6 turned up the ice and passed the puck to one of his 5 team mates that were either by the Admirals blueline or over the red line. Then with 39 seconds remaining, WBS scored a goal. That was Slap Shot bad! The four on ice officials should be docked their pay for doing that.
The game highlights skip over that sequence and only show the last 5 seconds or so when WBS scored their illegal goal. It should be modified to show what REALLY happened out there! I was there in person to see it with my own eyes. No director, no cameramen. My wife saw it too. So did a bunch of fans near the south end of the UWM Panther Arena. A lot of people missed it. I think that Aaron Sims missed it too. Nobody is perfect.
Anders Lindback was outstanding in the OT and the SO. He won the game for Milwaukee, stopping 6 shots in the OT and 3 of 4 in the Shoot Out. A game that the Admirals should have won during a PP at the end of regulation. So the refs, #2 Jarrod “The Big Ragu” Ragusin and #82 Alec “Ray Charles” Austin get the 2017-18 AHL HEAD UP THEIR BUTT AWARD! The Junior Award goes to linesmen #68 Rhodes Dolan and #71 Shaun “Of the Dead From the Neck Up” Morgan. You four BLEW IT, gentlemen. Thank God Almighty that the Admirals got 2 points, but they were cheated out of a ROW by the Zebras!
Here are the only things that the refs got right. Three minor penalties against WBS for messing with Admirals players behind the play. The boarding penalty on Granberg and the fighting penalties against him and the EVIL Tom Kostopoulos, the Dark Helmet of WBS and the AHL. Tom K. gets the Falling Down Clown of the Year Award for 2018 to go with the one he earned in the 2004 Calder Cup Finals. Well done, you minor league putz!
I spit on that dirty no good team! The only thing that the Baby Thugs did right was cycling the puck like no other AHL team that I have seen this season. It doesn’t make up for being a bunch of Slap Shot cheaters the rest of the night. They 1 point they got should be taken away by the AHL!
