Where was the talk about Gagner making the most dangerous play of the game? Would anyone be surprised is he got a fine or a game for it?

Where was the extended analysis of the puck on the goal line? They usually discuss such things between periods.
Where was the outrage for Nurse running Chucky in to the boards?
Smith trapazoid infraction?


Instead they talk about the "almost" trip by Gio,
Lol, not only was there no analysis of the no goal... but we were told that the refs had a really good look at it. We know this because of how little time they spent looking at it.

We also got to listen to the broadcast get upset over a missed high-sticking call, to later excuse his misjudgement by claiming that the puck hit him in the face. This while a replay of his teammate high-sticking him plays on our screens.

I will criticize the Flames-tilted version of this as well if it ever existed, as I'll like to watch good knowledgable insight and chatter about the game... not gaslighting into thinking the game went one way.
