Exciting game to watch! Unfortunate and disappointing result with some incompetent reffing at the end of the game.
Needs to be mentioned though, Adam Klapka with an absolutely brutal turnover trying to dance a guy solo in the neutral zone, the whole play wouldn't have mattered if he managed the puck better there.

Thoughts from the game:
-shocked that the play in OT wasn't blown down. The guy was still on the ice and offside.
-Coronato had a really good game after the first period. He held on to the puck often and made some great passes.
-Stromgren has really good hands. I know he scored that beauty in the Tucson series, but he had a sequence of stickhandling tonight that was just as good. He's a pretty physical player too. There is some upside there.

The AHL definitely knows how to make their playoffs a joke. Between community hockey style series scheduling and bush league reffing with no review ability at all. I went to both games and the hockey itself was very entertaining. They do consider this to be professional hockey, right?
I still don't understand how a league can't have some sort of review. Looking at the reply the guys jumped on the ice super early and are involved in the play that caused the turnover and because they were on the ice already were able to counter. Should have been too many men. Pretty blatant. This is all before the offside.
Was a game full of momentum shifts. Each team took turns controlling the play. Fun game to watch though. Good hockey. Some good players on both sides.
I don’t see why the Wranglers can’t pull it out in Coachella. It’s not like the were outplayed. Quite the opposite.
Stuff happens. You move on. Don’t let it get to OT next time. The blew two leads in regulation.
Stuff always "happens" to this franchise...blowing a lead doesn't mean you should be cheated in overtime.
Last Flames playoff game and last Wranglers playoff game in the dome were both stolen and we just move on and continue to shovel money in...nobody in the organization even calls it out.
We have a stanley cup stolen, playoff games stolen, now the AHL team is getting ####ed in the biggest moments...makes it hard to continue. They get ####ed over that hard in Calgary with a massive crowd I'm not liking their chances down south.

"Stuff happens, move on" is how stuff never stops happening and people always have to move on.
There should be a way to make sure the "stuff happens, move on" people can't benefit from the people who refuse to move on and force stuff to stop happening.
