Then to call it a major and intent to injure is awful, strictly a result of Pavelski being knocked out and bleeding due to the awkward fall. Just an awful call, but that's what ya sign up for when you are a fan of a league that makes it up as they go along They will fix this by eventually allowing reviews of major penalties.

May Day 10 Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 It has always kind of been that way. The cross-check was flagrant enough and the aftermath was bad enough where the call wasn't all too shocking to me. In a 3-0 game, it should have been manageable. I have seen 5 minute major powerplays just melt off time if the PK gets the upper hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no cross-check to the face, and it was not hefty..it was to his chest, threw him off balance and into Statsny. Stasney does nothing wrong, he is trying to get to his man at the point. The result was awful, but that does not make it a major penalty. Again, watch the refs on the play..not one inch does an arm move when the check occurred, never went up as play continued..only reason play stopped was a lineman realized Pavelski was out cold and called for time..refs then get together and say" ( I am guessing) that looks bad, did you see it? Nope Did you? Nope Well, lit looks really bad.. , lets call this major and intent to injure cause he is knocked out cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I don’t know how Washington didn’t get called for a delay of game penalty in that first overtime. That was 100% a delay of game. The puck was shot before it left the caps zone. Officiating has been kind of bad this postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 why do obviously playoff-bound teams try so hard in the regular season, it means worse than nothing trying in the regular season is only for: 1) teams that are truly struggling to eke out that last playoff spot 2) teams where winning is such a novelty that the fans love the party of their team actually playing hard almost every game 3) those epic teams that really can't help but win even if they put 10% effort into a game, they have to literally throw the game away, like pull Peyton and put Painter in the game to throw it away home advantage doesn't mean much if the "visiting team" has preserved energy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it would be that much of of an upset, I haven’t looked yet but I’d guess the jackets are +130 or close to it. It should be a good series. I like the Jackets here too, Chara looks exhausted. The jackets are physical and the Bruins just finished a 7 gamer. If they steal a road game tonight it would be huge for them.
