It's a game officiated by humans, they aren't going to be perfect. That doesn't mean that there is a league-wide conspiracy or that the Ducks have footage of Bettman sodomizing a chicken that they are threatening to upload.
We got a lot of calls our way last night, and STILL people come here to whine.
Seriously? Embarassing.

Totally disagree.
I know everything is 20/20 in hindsight but at 4-2 if that goal doesn't stand we probably see out the game. The no goal in game 2 and high stick goal last night are 2 of the most blatantly one sided calls I have ever seen go against the Flames in the playoffs. People are well within their rights to talk about conspiracies when you see crap like that. I had Wings fans texting me after the no goal in game 2 telling me we were robbed. It's not just Flames fans that can see blatantly obvious calls.
The high stick goal is not a goal any day of any week. Doesn't matter how many times or angles you view it at. The fact is that the people making the decision in a war room disagreed with it is absolutely mind boggling. Like I said last night, it was so obviously not a goal that the least surprising decision was that they ruled it as a goal. It's the equivalent of knowing you're doing the wrong thing but still going ahead with it regardless because you know you won't be held accountable. It has got to be one of the worst decisions in the playoffs in years.
