Sure you can argue something about the spirit of the rule if you like, but people calling it a bogus call are reeaaally stretching their argument.

Sometimes I feel like people just assume every call has to be wrong if they don't immediately get it, and the hyperbole is tiresome honestly. Yes NHL reffing sucks, but that call is not en example of it sucking.

It's also annoying that it's become all people talk about, when it was a great game with a great ending.

everyone on the panel, except for Ron of course, said it was a bad call...

this isn't just VKG fans saying this...a lot of media and ex players are saying this too...

steinberg is saying this morning...

its a bad call

people here would have lost their minds if Calgary was in VGK's position and got screwed like that.
