The play was stopped TWICE for around 2 minutes by the refs - supposedly the first time to check player eligibility (shouldn't they have done that at the start of the game?) and then because they had a problem with the down marker sign being wrong.

Again, I'm not saying the refs were trying to have Sk. win, but why was there these long momentum-killing delays, in the same drive where Mtl took over the lead?
thing is it the delays hurt the defence just as much..it kills any momentum they may of had.you could even say that the delays actually helped montreal,giving them more time to figure out there plays.
