Also why they made crossbar the height for a goal.

I’m not sure how clearly it was a high stick, it was around his head but he was crouched.

The replay was quiiiite obvious. Even took a screenshot but don't know how to post that in here. Stick was at least a foot above his head. Don't think his slouching created a foot in height difference.
The refs were horrible, yes. The Flames got the short end of the stick in terms of penalties, but that was an obvious no goal.
At the same time, although the Flames were much better after the brutal first, Winnipeg was still clearly the much better team.
Again, preseason.

It looked like it could have been anywhere from head height to shoulder that he made contact with the puck as his stick was coming down when he made contact. Everything I saw looked pretty borderline and to call back a play you are supposed to have conclusive evidence. Anyways despite this being preseason its hard to swallow blatant missed calls like Tkachuk's stick being slashed in half then to have such a borderline play be reviewable. I'm more upset that's a reviewable play than it even being called back at this point.

If you know how to post a screenshot here and can explain it to me, yes I can.
