The Sedin one was way more obvious and dangerous looking. If the Leafs player turned to face the boards before getting hit it would have been an easy call for the refs.
Well, it's a relief I don't have to cheer for the Leafs anymore. I felt kind of ashamed about it.
Oh, and Phaneuf is so useless it's almost comical. Every player has that iconic image that captures his style of play. Phaneuf's is standing in the crease staring at the puck in his net, as though he hasn't the foggiest idea how it happened and what he was supposed to do about it.

Yeah and the fact that the nhl call penalties also based on the outcome and in this case nothing happened to the player. Probably would have gotten a call if he had made a nice dive and stayed down instead of getting up right away.
Anyhow, Leafs blew it big time and blaming the refs should be the last thing they do. Allowed 4 goals in 15 minutes? Epic choke.
Not the same. You drive a guy into the boards from behind it's a penalty, no debate.
I agree its a penalty.
Buts that not what your are arguing. You are saying that call cost them the series. It did not. It was one missed call amoung many in the whole series.
He plays 20+ minutes a night and is better than any other guy on the team not sure how that is addition by subtraction. I know crapping on Phaneuf and making up how bad he is is a past time for some on CP but getting rid of Phaneuf makes the Leafs a much worse team.
Aside from most (but not all) rookies, I can't recall seeing a defenceman as clueless in his own end. It's like he literally has no idea what his assignment is. The guy has terrible hockey IQ, and is a defensive liability.
If the Bruins had played this series the way they are capable it would have been over in 5-6 games. But man it was incredible watching that comeback, I haven't been that pumped during a game since 2011.
Dude when it comes to the Canucks, it could be a team of Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot, Augusto Pinochet, Josef Stalin and Kim Jong Il and if one of them scores against the Canucks you take it.
