Probable sarcasm, but who knows.
He passed it directly to Tatar.
I mean, I always thought it had to do with whether or not they had possession in between. You see players get assists all the time when it bounces off another player then to your own...On the cast Daniels said it was because it went off a Duck's stick. Apparently that matters? If it had been a Duck's sake Ken said it would have been a Datsyuk assist.
Never knew that.
Jones/Johnansen?...
4 wins in a row?! My mind just froze.
They considered it an "own-goal" on the Ducks defender so the last Wing to touch it gets credit for the goal with no assists.

This doesn't fly.
Iginla's 600th was a deflection off a Kings player and assists were given out.
The pass also was not tipped.
Really curious as to how Datsyuk didn't get an assist.
Not to mention things like a "crosby assist."
Was crosby on ice? Give him an assist

There is honestly no reason for Datsyuk not to get an assist. It makes no sense.
Most entertaining game I have watched in a while. There was a playoff feel and pissing getzlaugh and perry off is always fun.
Yeah the duck d didn't maintain possession. He swiped at it to hopefully clear it off to the side but never established possession. Oh well a W is a W.
It all hinges on whether the duck defender "played" the puck or "deflected" the puck as Tatar brought the puck to the crease. The refs thought the Duck played it. I don't really agree with it, but that's how they scored it.
Larkin +24
The SJS game was much more exciting IMO. It was really similar in the sense that it was 1-1 almost all game until a late goal (by us) in the 3rd.
Do refs score plays? I didn't think they have any say in the matter.
I think the on ice officials give their score to the score keepers. The score keepers can adjust it if they get further info from the benches at intermission, etc. But yeah, I'm pretty sure the initial call comes from the on ice refs.
I thought there were 'scorers' in every arena who kept track of stats, like hits, blocked shots, goals, assists, saves, shots, etc.
Really weird that refs would tell the score keeper who touched the puck for the secondary assist out of a scrum... Seems unlikely but the NHL is somewhat of a joke so who knows.
