What a unlucky sequence of events. If the first pass isn't blocked by the good stick by Brodie, a good chance the puck doesn't get to Granlund given the angle it was passed from, and, Lindholm had his stick tied up at that moment.
Brodie does block it with his stick,poking it away, the puck bounces off the boards, then off the refs skate blade which sets the puck right back on the Preds players stick instantly, and gives him now a better angle to see and make it through to Granlund, and Lindholm was at a worse angle to get Granlunds stick.
Gio only went behind the net after Brodie blocked the first shot.
Doesn't change that Rittich was slow in getting to that post. |
Uuugh. What a cruel sport indeed. It probably would've been just enough to end the game right there if the refs skate wasn't there to block it and allow Forsberg to get the puck back so fast.
