You can't call a double minor on a cross check

You know Ron, you could just say it was a bad call. Not a big deal.
Major is a bad call with the benefit of replay...real time you see a guy with a high crosscheck and the other guy is on the ice bleeding everywhere. I don't really blame the ref at all. Its a 3-0 game and he doesn't want it to get out of control.

4 goals in a 5 min pp is ridiculously bad, should they lose this game its not all on the refs. Don't forget that Vegas also scored a goal with an obvious high stick.

There would be legit riots if this happened tonight to the Flames if they got to Game 7 at home, and they didn’t tie it back up as Vegas did.

shows you how much mental strength you need to overcome adversity, bad calls, posts, and bounces just to be the game 7 loser. can't see our flames team competing like this with so many things go wrong

It’s the right call. Glad it is going to OT. But it was the right call. Cross check and guy gets carried off.

Yes, that bad call.

I blame the ref. Four of them get to discuss the play.

Doubt it. We are classy. If we didn't riot in 2004 after Game 6 we will never do it. Unless Vancouver flies in their professional rioters.

The refs guessed, that's the problem. And they guessed wrong.

“It was a cross check, fruit from the poison tree.”

Ron is a greasy loser.

He exemplifies the phrase “charisma is theft”.

Everything he says and does is a manipulative back handed effort to validate his own self worth.

He’s brainless and sitting next to the geriatric xenophobe in the 1st intermission is the only thing that makes him look reasonably intelligent.

My guess, as mentioned, is that major penalties can get video reviewed, starting next year.

Here we go. Nyquist for the Sharks and Pacioretty for the Knights. Double OVERTIME would be excellent.

It quite possibly is the worst call made in the playoffs, if i was a vegas fan id be upset with a 2 min penalty call

But it's useful as Ref MacLean is admitting that this is exactly how refs think.

They *want* to manage games, they *want* to balance penalties. They *choose* to call penalties selectively depending on the time in the game and the score on the clock.

I have no doubt that the refs knew it was 3-0 with less than 10 minutes left in a heated Game 7 and that influenced their call in this situation. Would it have been the same call if it was 1-1?

No way.
