Yeah, wheres all the outrage for the non call on the hyman highstick, or the too many men right before zadorov scored.

Or the game prior with the hand pass.

Tons of examples can be drawn from both games.

 

[Skolman]

Hilarious take. Next time, watch the game without your rose-coloured glasses. Blatant missed calls by the refs on the Oilers.

Oh the irony in this post, you can't make it up.

or the trip on draisaitl and kane minutes before the Oilers got called for tripping.

How about the leg sweep by Kane on Hughes and the board on Pettersson by Nurse?

 

[PuckG]

Yep, Oilers fans are definitely whining a lot.

Are they?

You should read every Oilers vs Canucks GDT.

You should also read the series thread.

Hell, one side started before the games even begun. The coach himself takes every opportunity at the mic to state that they should just let them play and/or complains about reffing.

There is a notable difference and pretending otherwise is delusional.

You mean the shoulder to shoulder hit by Nurse on EP?

And Kane finishing his check on Hughes?

Oh the irony in this post, you can't make it up.

It makes sense how they do this, the Canucks media just fuels them.

I think there is no point discussing reffing fails.. no side is going to convince the other. Players/coaches have agreed that it's a tough job and a lot was missed ...time to move on..
I am sure no ref is willingly taking one side over the other or is out to get certain teams. They just miss stuff

 

[Bobby9]

Great game. Back and forth. Shame my Canucks lost but it wasn’t gonna be an easy series to win.

Everybody just making themselves look bad with the crying and complaining.

 

[Izzy Goodenough]

Breathtaking:

Your Vancouver Canucks are zero wins in eight playoffs games all time in which Kelly Sutherland is an official.

The probability of this happening by chance is approaching that of the Oilers winning the draft lottery in three consecutive years (2012, 2011 and 2010) and then again in 2015.

 

[PuckG]

How about the leg sweep by Kane on Hughes and the board on Pettersson by Nurse?

The leg sweep in which Hughes decides to turn at the last second?

He probably loses some benefit of doubt with the previous diving.

The boarding is an example of a missed call just like the other calls missed on the Canucks mentioned above. Get over it.

its getting bad enough that even vancouver cheerleader Bieksa is calling them out on it.

 

[Dieseloil]

Almost looked like Zach Hyman.

And Zach was right there admiring his student.

Yaawnz.. missed calls just on Oilers? No one else?
I guess it stings more when you are connected the losing side but missed calls were everywhere..

 

[featherhawk]

the officiating is terrible

there is no denying the fact that the 4 zebras through the rulebook out the window and simply called what they WANTED to call instead of what they should have called. the NHL should be ashamed and really should discipline this group of 4 officials then send them back to get additional training should they want to continue on with the NHL officiating career

I agree. It’s why the incessant whining about the refs is irritating.

The better team won both games.

Did you even read the post I started out with? I was asking for consistency. It's the Oilers fans who thought that it was a dig at them. Rather sensitive are Oiler fans.

 

[LTIR]

I must say..nuck Homer or not, Bieksa is miles better than the next best person on that panel. Gazdic might get close but even as an Oilers fan Bieksa is a beauty.

 

[TheBrew]

Nothing says confidence in your team like being a crying hypocrite to the media, practically begging for the league to tip the scales in your favour. What a pathetic display from that guy.

Tocchet gambled on NHL games what do you expect?

 

[Skolman]

Right, because there is zero bias in your post below.. You might want to review your posts before you try to be a wise guy

Other than the missed high sticking call by McDavid on Hughes, the biggest issue last night was consistency. If Suter gets called for interference on McDavid, then McDavid who runs into the back of Zadorov when the puck is nowhere near should have been called too. If the refs want to put the whistles away, then it should be fair to both teams. Both teams got away with calls, but it was clear that the Oilers got away with more.

If you are asking for consistency then you got it.. refs are consistently missing calls on both sides..
The Nuge grab penalty, that play happens 20 times a game in the corners without any issues. The refs just pick and choose what and when they want a PP.

Consistently inconsistent

 

[Chairman Maouth]

It was very clear the Nucks got away with more. The panel even talked multiple times about missed calls on Nucks. Nice try.

4-minute penalty missed



Potential major missed. At the least, it should have been 2 minutes for boarding.


A minimum of 6 minutes in penalties missed on only two calls.

 

[GOilers88]

Man some of you guys are really an embarrassment to your respective fanbase.

Reading this thread makes me wish both teams could lose.

And?

Above on the same page, Oiler fans have mentioned numerous penalties that should have been called too.

It’s the name of the game. Welcome back to the playoffs.

 

[Brookbank]

I think it's pretty bad ass mcdavid score the clutch tying goal on a breakaway. Had 3 assists and most importantly.

Cut the Canucks little captain right in front of the refs and no penalty.

What an absolute gangster to do this right in Vancouver and skate out breaking their hearts.

He's a 12.5 million dollar forward. Pretty sure he's supposed to score clutch goals

Sure, but you always gotta consider the source.
