Half-Assed GDT: vs ♪

[Dbrownss]

Lol so the Ref 10ft away said no goal and he was overruled?

Early game, Europeans rejoice.

Nice! But I wish they'd have more of these earlier and laer in the season. I happen to be in North America now! Arggh!

 

[Blanick]

This is kind of embarrassing getting outshot and outworked like this for the last two periods.

 

[TheDizee]

blues have played well today thus far. the shots only look lopsided because of the PPs that calgary has gotten.

 

[Edgar Carrow]

That doesn't make any sense

I know, but that's what happened.

ya LOL how does the ref 50+ feet away have a better view at that then the ref 10feet away. League and its officiating standards are so sad.

Great defensive play by Shatty.

Check.

His stick was clearly below the bar when it made contact. So this call was good. But, Stastny's was much closer. Actually, I think his was also below the bar (but barely).

This is going to make me sound crazy. There are times where I truly believe that NHL officials are given marching orders to try and make games close. This game feels like one of those games. PP 4 nothing in favor of flames with 2 questionable calls IMO. Call off a Steen high stick goal. Then on an almost identical play at the other end it is called off then change it on the ice after some campaigning from players. Then go to video review and claim inconclusive so therefore a good goal. Total BS, Ells deserved his SO. I hope this official doesn't get any playoff games.

I don't think there's any intent to keep games close. I just think that NHL officiating as a whole is flawed.

I mean, what does the NHL gain from an afternoon Blues/Flames game being close?

browuer just did the splits to stay onside

 

[Dbrownss]

Shots are misleading. Flames have had 4 PPs and a lot of perimeter shooting. Hitch has said that the come from behind games really take it out of the team...as much as I hate seeing them throttle down, they've got a B2B coming up and are holding the lead by 2

 

[Blanick]

Brouwer'd

 

[Alklha]

This team...

 

[Dbrownss]

Weak...

 

[Edgar Carrow]

Pfft.

 

[Blanick]

Come on!
We should have buried them long ago but no we take our foot off the petal and let them back into the game.

 

[TheDizee]

well the refs got what they wanted, 1 goal game now. i imagine they will get a late PP here also.

 

[TheDizee]

flames had the puck with 6 men on the ice there

 

[StLHokie]

Contrary to your belief, the refs in the NHL are not being paid to make calls against the Blues

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

We had Christmas early today - got a Parayko Home jersey!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TheDizee]

toodaloo calgary. take the joke refs with you and go back to canada.

 

[Robb_K]

Blues win!!!

 

[Blanick]

Outside of the first five minutes just a really really ugly game. Reffing was lopsided yes but our play was very poor as well.

 

[Vincenzo Arelliti]

SO close. . .

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

2 points is 2 points
