WCF: Game 2 | Predators @ Ducks | 730 PM EST | SN, TVAS, NBCSN

[BonMorrison]

I'm so mad right now about those faceoffs.

 

[NorCalDuck]

Rakell so close...

Bro hymn!!!!

 

[Backpack]

NBC's muting of the crowd after goals is atrocious

You could hear them fudging the crowd levels all night on the NBC broadcast. Watch the last 10 seconds of the game. Its ridiculous.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Ducks won!!!? where is the link to that Ducks human resource guy ....i want to write an email

[RomanEmpire]

I have zero faith in this team to win 2 at home.

Earth to Colin Wilson. Earth to Mike Fisher. Earth to Calle Jarnkrok.

NBC's muting of the crowd after goals is atrocious

Just muting the annoying goal horn, the crowd noise is part of it.

NBC's muting of the crowd after goals is atrocious

they really bungle most aspects of their NHL broadcasts

scheduling, cameramen, replays, audio mixing etc etc etc

can't imagine they'll lose the contract though cause they got deeeeep pockets

 

[Predigree]

Sorry Guys but i think its stupid to talk about Penaltys. The Ref´s say Call or not Call. There is nothing we can do even post RuleBook.

Deal with it.

 

[vipera1960]

Maybe you should have a look at the replay since sweeping the puck with your fingertips is not the same as closing your hand over the puck.

It doesn't matter. Intentionally using your hands to gather the puck under you is delay of game.

A minor penalty shall be imposed on a player other than the goalkeeper who deliberately falls on or gathers the puck into his body. Any player who drops to his knees to block a shot should not be penalized if the puck is shot under him or becomes lodged in his clothing or equipment but any use of the hands to make the puck unplayable should be penalized promptly.

lol spam ads away hehe tell him he has just won the Jamaican lottery

This series has got to be fun for outsiders. Close games. Dirty plays. Lots of passion and hitting. Stressful for us as ducks/preds fans though haha.

 

[Osprey]

The Ducks deserved to win. They overcame being down by 2 goals and then again being down 1 goal and the Preds couldn't come back from even just a single goal down. They seemed deflated by all of the weak goals that Rinne gave up, none more so than the 4th. The Ducks, to their credit, didn't let themselves become too deflated and were much more resilient than the Preds in this game.

The Preds should really have picked up a centre at the deadline imo, they didn't buy a single forward as far as I remember excluding Mcleod.

They got Fiddler, but he's a 4th-line center, not a 2nd-line one.

Too hard to beat the ducks 5v5. Gibson was the only reason that Nashville was in the game.

The Preds have allowed fewer 5v5 goals than the Ducks and Rinne was as much of a reason for Anaheim being in the game.

 

[RomanEmpire]

Seriously Roenick absolutely hates Nashville hahah. I don't even get it

You know what else is a penalty that wasn't called? Spearing. There were missed calls to both sides and that is arguably not one of them.

 

[PuckProphet]

Ducks made the Preds hesitate were more effective in the neutral zone and defending entry passing They went high on Rinne (still i am amazed that low goal went in) they took the defense rush out of the game by challenging the puck carrier ..called minor adjustment

 

[Tofveve]

They went down 40-50$ today before this game even started

Huh, that's strange. Maybe news got out that it wasn't the SCF as one news station reported

I think everyone missed Arvidsson interfering by holding the stick in the beginning of the second too.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

No issue at all with refs in this game. I did think they missed a blatant trip with 1:30 or so to go on Anaheim when Nashville was trying to setup in the zone but that call is never getting made in that spot in the playoffs

Maybe it's called if the preds dont spend the whole third diving.

I will agree with this as a neutral fan. It was slated to be a good one, and so far it has delivered.

 

[vipera1960]

That's not my argument at all. I agree there were a lot of missed calls on both teams, and I wouldn't expect that one to be called either. I was just pointing out how stupid the announcers look for calling something that is technically a penalty a "smart hockey play".

It is. So much talent. There's like a dozen top-pair defenders in this series.

Seriously Roenick absolutely hates Nashville hahah. I don't even get it

Maybe because they destroyed Chicago? Idk.

 

[Tofveve]

Best of 5 now. Great series ahead

 

[carter333167]

Officiating was pretty fair IMO.

 

[TNT87]

He's such a clown.

 

[NorCalDuck]

Ducks were down, stopped watching to play soccer. Came back and they won!!! Amazing!!! Looking forward to the rest if this series.
