I can't believe the mainboards reaction to this, saying it's just another bad call, laughing it off because Vegas shouldn't have let up the 4 goals which of course they shouldn't have but that's not the point.
Even without context it's an awful, awful call and a black mark on the NHLs showcasing their biggest problem, they call the injuries not the plays. When it happens in a game 7 it's even worse. The fact that it decided the series does cement it as one of the worst calls of all time. But 4 goals or not it was awful and deserves ridicule.

Does anyone know the total number of penalties of each team in the series? I just know that 9 to 2 penalties in a game 7 in favor of the home team just seems a bit too much.

I don't know the stats off the top of my head, and I don't care enough anymore to research.
However, I'm guessing the major penalty counted as 5 power plays since a major starts a new power play every time they score. So that major would have counted as the Sharks going 4/5 on the powerplay for the game if there were no other penalties called in their favor.

Nice avatar.
Thanks, stole it from Reddit.
Also, Boston just got the reverse "The Call" call. McAvoy should be out. 2 minute minor instead.

Before we (Las Vegas) got our own team, I was a loyal Avs fan from a week after Roy got traded to the Avs. I only watched olympic hockey up to that point and a friend from back home was visiting right when Roy got traded to the Avs and is a Habs fan and wanted to see the Roy play so we did a road trip. I think it was his 2nd or 3rd game with them and that road trip got me hooked on NHL hockey. So I'll be going to SJ to watch game 7. Look for the middle aged guy wearing an authentic KOHO (the Avs road jersey) Forsberg jersey which is my favorite jersey that I own. My girlfriend is really afraid of going into enemy territory so if anyone wants to take her place let me know as if I can find a replacement she would rather have someone else go. We can take turns driving my new car (this might be the best part of the trip) and you can get your own room.
I almost want to wear one of my VGK jerseys just to get people agitated although I'm sure it won't be easy hearing about losing game 7 to them.

I think that's because those of us who are over it are largely ignoring the salt mine that VGK haters have created there.

RoR is my favorite non VGK player so I would be rooting for him to win a ring against anyone except us.

I never thought the Avs stood a chance. I was surprised they took it as far as they did.
The Blues were my pick to come out of the West. I expect them to beat San Jose. They were actually the best team in the league since January.

I saw that the sharks Twitter account asking the blues to stop hitting their players in the head and I can't recall any teams Twitter account saying anything like that before. It was as if a typical sharks fan was running it. I saw blues fans posting replies of gifs showing the sharks hitting blues players in the knees, a slewfoot, and Burns hitting someone from behind then punching the downed player in the back of the head a few times for good measure in response that the nasty hits wasn't one sided.
