Embarrassing to be a Minnesota fan with that display. Stand up for your bad hit, Dumba.

And you would know... how?

 

[Former Referee 68]

Great Hit Dumba!

 

[flamesforcup]

GG Wild fans.

 

[NHL1674]

Perhaps if they gave Giordano a 5 for taking Koivu out, tempers wouldn't have gotten out of control.

 

[Il Stugotz]

Premature horn blowing and an annoyed ref

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

GG Wild fans.

Good game!

 

[DJJones]

Ryan Lomberg gets a game suspension right?

Who cares. That's what hes there for.

Not sure what czarnik did to Peter's

 

[sabremike]

Gritty was dressed as LL Cool J for 90's night in Philly tonight. Just give him the Calder already!!!

 

[rynryn]

Smith was great. our passing was horrible.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Can't believe Nylander is making 6.96M and Larkin only 6.1M per. I'll take Larkin the player and that contract 7 days a week and twice on Sunday.

Ok

Getting beat by a mickey mouse team

You seem confused. That’s what the Leafs were for over a decade before Matthews fell into their lap.

 

[hangman005]

No goal. DUnno how to feel about that one.

I know how you feel. I don't necessarily disagree with the call, but I'd like to see the official ruling. I think it could have been over turned, but ah well need to be much much better in the 3rd.

Correct.

I believe Peters is also fined 10k too.

 

[hangman005]

Premature horn blowing and an annoyed ref

The Refs face reminded me of this.

 

[tarapoto2006]

Correct.

I believe Peters is also fined 10k too.

That's...unlikely.

 

[CraigsList]

Premature horn blowing and an annoyed ref

Ref: “Ima wait til the horn is done... no goal”

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

If you take time out of your day/evening to check out if a particular team is losing and that gives you happiness then I really dont know what to say

You just described every regular sports fan.

 

[Snakepit]

Correct.

I believe Peters is also fined 10k too.

I guess it's not automatic like I though. Just automatically looked at by the NHL. We've seen them let it go before.

Although in this case given the way the calls on the ice went it's probably a game

 

[Hockeyfan2390]

No one fights kronwall after that? What a joke

Why would they? Not a dirty hit.

 

[Noisia]

LOL @ Dumba, throws a cheap hit on Backlund and is scared to fight Lomberg.

 

[JerseyMike34]

You just described every regular sports fan.

Not even close.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

LOL @ Dumba, throws a cheap hit on Backlund and is scared to fight Lomberg.

Scared, or wanted to be out there on a PP with 45 seconds left in a 2 goal game.

 

[Noisia]

Correct.

NHL reviews it.
Hopefully they see their garbage refs missed an obvious headshot on Backlund which caused this.

 

[Noisia]

Scared, or wanted to be out there on a PP with 45 seconds left in a 2 goal game.

Scared. He knows many people in Calgary wont be happy with him when he returns home this spring/summer.

 

[Sam Spade]

Why would they? Not a dirty hit.

Look I get what you mean but if guys like Trouba and Kronwall are gonna keep hitting Matthews like that with zero repercussions than guess what, guys are gonna keep hitting Matthews like that until he is injured again and again.

I know hockey has changed a lot but taking liberties with superstars and then getting pummeled should not.

One of my favorite moments of Ovechkin's career is not a goal, but this play:

What did Trouba do wrong? Matthews was taking the puck to the net.
