Just got back from a grocery store run and caught up on the last few minutes.
I assumed from the replays people were complaining about the trip right in front of the empty net, but that was Smith.
Trocheck was right before I see and I agree that could have been called for sure, though I don't think you see a ref call that against the team that's trailing in the final minute of many games, let alone playoff games.
Frustrating no doubt for Panthers fans, but I think that's just how officiating goes in those situations.
As for the goal, where the hell were all the Panthers? All on one side of the goal with Tavares alone.
