Interesting to read the mix of comments on Ras and the puck. Personally, I think it was classless and clueless. The kid stoned the Flames; he played a calm composed game and a bunch of crybaby millionaire soft-as-butter players tried to take his souvenir. Not a good look, and it got a lot of play from the media. Unfavourably.
I'm surprised and disappointed in how that played out (game and puck alike), but churlish tantrums really aren't the way to respond. Flames had their chances and didn't take them. They have only themselves to blame.
It *did* take one of the Lineys going over to Ras to get him to drop the puck...he didn't do it voluntarily. Wanna make a statement? Do it on the ice Ras.
