Thornton-Phaneuf would have been fun. Stupid refs.

Smith with a couple huge saves to keep Pheonix in the game.
Two of the three penalties against the Sharks were big time dress-ups by the Leafs. I commend them for that. Got to do what you can to get an advantage.
That Thornton "headshot"
1 of 3. That was a massive snapback of the head by Kadri on the Thornton penalty, I'll give you that one. The other two were legit, though. Especially that hold on Winnik.
Don't laugh, Kadri could have been seriously injured by that brutal headshot. Lol
I also like how when jumbo got out of the box he went after kardi. When Kadri got the bench he looked relieved to be away from jumbo
The trip on Winnik was a dive. I don't care that he did it but a spade is a spade. lol
I don't really mind dives since everybody does it and no one scored off the PPs but man I'm grumpy about that dislodged net that could have been a goal
That was a smart, heads up play by Polak. That was gonna be a goal unless he took the net off and took the penalty. One of the few times I can ever legitimately classify something as a "good penalty".
IMO, for those kinds of situations though where a goal will be scored like that, they should count it or at least give out a penalty shot.
