The fact a goal was revoked because of a infraction yet no penalty was called is enough proof of what a joke the call was last night.
Regardless, the refs couldn't determine the outcome of this one no matter how hard they tried.

The goal should never have happened, gagner should have been penalized for a cross check five seconds earlier and rendered the whole thing moot.
As it stands, we got a nice moment that 73 percent of the tsn poll had no problem with. this thread being 400 posts large is astonishing.
