That's gotta be the goal of the year
What the f***
That's gotta be the goal of the year
The Ducks like the Ducks again after firing Carlyle. Like the Ducks we hate to play against.
Naturally we have 3 games left against them.
So frustrating. If we don't win the Pacific it will be because of losing intra-divisional games (already lost season series to Van, need a regulation W on March 31st to tie SJS)
The Oilers were 8-2 after their coaching change. It'll pass.The Ducks like the Ducks again after firing Carlyle. Like the Ducks we hate to play against.

4-4 Boston/SJ - F### those guys.
what happened?Only caught the last half of the third period onwards for the Buins-Sharks game and that was stupid, but as a Flames fan I'll take it.
Sharks were pretty much dominating play from the time I was watching, up 5-4 on the Bruins. Bruins tie it up 5-5 with a couple minutes left, on a missed high-sticking call (that lead to the tying goal but was not the scoring touch) as the play was unreviewable and therefore ruled good. During all of this, and I never saw a different angle, but I clearly saw the ref wave the goal off behind the net but apparently only a moment before the camera cut to him waving "no goal", he may have waved "good goal" as well. Anyways, the goal counts.what happened?
The ref never once waved off the goal. He emphatically pointed to the net like 8 times, then when Sharks players came over to argue that it was a high stick, he did the gesture to indicate that he had touched it again (the same gesture for saying a puck was deflected over the glass, where you rub one hand over the fingers on the other hand). I think this is the thing that people thought was him waving it off, but he was very clearly indicating a good goal the whole time.Sharks were pretty much dominating play from the time I was watching, up 5-4 on the Bruins.

Could have been. It was a very brief cut to the goal call including the ref, and was incredibly easy to interpret as a "no goal" wave, and I definitely didn't see a "good goal" signal but that's just THE MEDIA controlling the narrative!The ref never once waved off the goal.

I think you missed another hilarious gaffe earlier in the game, too. Couture got a partial breakaway after splitting the D, got literally the most meaningless of "hooks" while going in, his shot went through Rask but was cleared right off the goal-line, and the referee, in his excitement, emphatically waved off the goal, then (while yelling "penalty shot") accidentally pointed to the goal instead of centre ice. The horn went off, the players all cheered, the fans all cheered, everybody cheered, and Toronto prompted an official review. What a gong show.
