That coverage by Burns on Marchessault's goal... Jesus.
''Norris''
That was a brutal call, should have been a 2 minute penalty for Eakin cross-checking to the chest.
Five minutes on account of Pavelski falling awkwardly.

He got double whammied. Stastny could have been double minored for interference. Collectively, that is 6 penalty minutes.Oh man. I just saw the video of the cross check. There needs to be video review on major penalties.
Eakin definitely should have gotten 2 minutes. But Pavelski's injury was a freak accident, not from the cross-check, which of course was to the chest, not the head.
Hard to blame the refs - from there angle it could have looked like a cross check to the head resulting in a serious injury.
So much for the refs not changing the outcome of a game.
