[hort22]

I can understand the no call on the non holding call on coyle...but holy **** was stastny not ****ing way offsides...Jesus no calls are one thing but there are still rules, are there not?

 

[Billy Mays Here*]

All I can do is laugh and try and take my mind off that **** show. But I know I won't be able to.

 

[Wild Caniac]

We win game 6. Lose game 7 in OT.

Thats what it feels like.

 

[jedisports]

This game makes me not want to watch hockey anymore.

That's precisely how I feel at the moment.

 

[Sneaky Priest]

It's going to feel so good when we take the next two games and advance despite the best efforts of the officials and the Avalanche.

 

[mezcal]

To me, this game would have done a lot for us in this series. I think the momentum from a win here would have gave us the next game. A win here was extremely important. Refs screwed up, but that's professional sports for you.

 

[PariseSuterKoivu]

As a fan, all I ever wish for is a well played, fairly officiated game where the better team wins. It's why I follow sports, as a temporary distraction from the unfairness of life in the modern world. Now this S**t.

See, that's what I said after game 1, but...

 

[Jarick]

If the Wild didn't blow the two goal lead in game one, and if the refs didn't blow this game, Wild would have gone to the second round.

Now, their chances are not good. Sorry, but Avs have to win one game of two, with one at home.

 

[gphr513]

We should launch a ****ing congressional investigation...

 

[Blizzard6411]

****ing ****ity **** **** ****

I need another beer!

**** **** ****

 

[TaLoN]

I refuse to blame the Refs, when the Wild could have dealt with it and prevented those goals. The Wild lost because they sat back and started making mistakes.

They should have gone for the jugular with the lead, not try to sit on it!

While I agree, we've been better than the Avs 2/3 games at Pepsi center. It's not outlandish to think we could win the next two.

 

[BigT2002]

Asked before. Can someone expand on what happens when refs just miss blatant damn calls like this. It's the playoffs!

 

[PariseSuterKoivu]

The NHL joins the ranks of professional wrestling. At least wrestlers wear more interesting costumes.

Well if the NHL cares enough, they'll get a "disciplinary hearing", but it's all super private so no one really knows.

 

[INTOTHEVOID]

Just completely disgusting overall, just so sad at this point I don't even care.

[Paul Bunyan]

I have to go out and have a cigarette. Or two. Total silence and a couple of cigarettes. That's the plan right now.

That sounds like a good plan. I may go outside sit on this bench by myself overlooking a field and smoke my pipe just to calm down.

Honestly, it's stuff like this that makes me want to just quit team sports, and save thousands not buying season tickets, Wild gear and everything else because of games like these.

Losing fairly, totally cool. Losing because the team is bad? Totally cool.

Not like this though.

Now I'll be at Game 6 live, and it will be death, or some joyous high and if the Wild do win....do I even bother watching Game 7?

 

[DeuceMN]

The Wild didn't help anything by going into their ****ing shell. How often do we lose when we ****ing do that?!?!

With that said, the ****ing officiating, Just no words for how grossly terrible and just ****ed up it was. I really want to know how these guys can escape some kind of punishment for screwing with the game to the degree that they did.

And I swear to God if one more of our players gets punched repeatedly in the back of the ****ing head while they're down on the ice... All the while the Avs support group is *****ing about how we're ****ing dirty. If any player has shown himself to be a giant *********, hypocritical, dirty ****ing pos, it's ****ing Landeskog.

I lost so much respect for him after tonight.

 

[Nucks780]

i have to say the wild got absolutely robbed this game by the refs. that was clearly a holding call on coyle there when the avs tied the game. I don't how the refs missed that ****. I couldnt' believe my eyes when that wasn't called. That was more clear then that offside in my opinion. Avs didn't deserve this. All this controversary is really taking away the excitement of the game. NHL needs to do something or they will start losing some fans.

 

[BigT2002]

Well if the NHL cares enough, they'll get a "disciplinary hearing", but it's all super private so no one really knows.

Pretty much what I figured.

 

[llamapalooza]

Yeo on offside tying goal:To sit here and dwell on it,I don’t think it’s going to do us any good.Obviuosly frustrating,obv. disappointing

Well, there we have it. Spineless as usual.

 

[00xtremeninja]

Landeskog is a joke. He's hanging around McLeod too much

Be a man, Yeo. Besides, you've only got 2 games max left with the Wild anyway. Stand up for your players and stop being a ****y.
