Re: NHL '10 - '11 Thread
Tom I am not a fan of the refs, but I watched that whole game on the cbc feed and didnt think you were jobbed that bad.
The eirhoff play he was off sides, but how the hell did that go in untouched from the blue line? Turco should have had that all day, he didnt appear screened. As to the goal waived off the cbc guys showed there was contact with the blocker and the skate of the blackhawk. Incidental, but it did appear to technically be the right call.
As to the penalties, Canucks took 6 including I believe a 5-3 for about 50 seconds. The refs also gave the penalty in the last 3 min to the Canucks giving the Hawks the chance to tie it up. The Hawks took 5 penalties no 5-3. What really struck me about the game was how bad the Hawks PP looked. On one or two PPs I remeber they didnt even get a shot on net but the Canucks did get shots on the PK.
To me the story was the Hawks couldnt convert on any of their PPs including a 5-3. Luongo played well, two of the Hawks goals were flukie. Boyntons goal was off his hip. Bolland goal is confusing as hell to watch. It was an own goal of the dmans hand.
I am no fan of the canucks, but I saw it a little different.
I will say the operator of the goal horn in that arena is straight dbag. What the hell was that crap? The random honk numbers. Reminded me of the horn operator in Ottawa during the world jrs the other year.
