I'm sorry Chuck but that's bullshit. Enough is enough. They have taken liberties all series long with hits like that. AV needs to call out these refs for that crap already. He should have called them out earlier in the series because someone will seriously get hurt out there with these cheap hits from behind.
Thank god you idiots don't play for the Rangers otherwise we'd be in the box the whole game because you think it is smart to crosscheck someone after a missed call when we are in total control up 2-0. Ridiculous...
Sorry but I disagree only because we can't let them take liberties. It only got compounded by lack of smarts by Girard and McDonough
And what did you prove 94...LOL. He knocked Stamkos on his a** MOVE ON. Dumb penalty that accomplished NOTHING outside of a PP for TB. You get payback via your play, not by a dumb penalty when you are playing for your life in the 1st period.
That was a weak ass call on Kreider after the refs set that standard of what was acceptable after what Stamkos did. THAT is my problem. Kreider deserved a penalty, but so did Stamkos for his initial hit. Consistency doesn't exsist this series.
funny how ALL of us got pizzed at girardi years ago when he didn't defend his teammate, yea i get it its the playoffs, but the players they have to defend 1 another... stamkos is a punk if anything kreider should have gotten his moneys worth and knocked a few teeth out
no one's saying kiss the guy's ass, but a little respect for what the guy did for us would be nice. Why call him a fucking loser, even if it's by a loser
Like I said you should all be angrier with Mcdonagh and Girardi for not realizing Callahan had snuck behind them.
Awesome...you disagree Al...so take some more dumb penalties and give them PP's...that will show them...LOL. He knocked Stamkos on his a**...MOVE ON.
Chuck, you're asking Al to move on from a penalty...impossible. We'll hear about this non-call for years.
YES Stamkos did deserve a penalty, but they didn't call it. You think crosschecking him accomplished anything outside of PP TB and now a 2-1 game? I am over it... Played well in the 1st period, now keep pushing and get ALL pucks on crappy Bishop. Even more angry about the lack of effort we played with in game 5 when you see Bishop again look awful.
Respectfully what I think you guys are missing is we are playing for our lives...this is not the time for payback via a dumb crosscheck that will do NOTHING except give TB a PP. What did that accomplish..I mean really. You need to learn how to control emotions and when you can get payback and when you need to be smart. What do you think Stamkos is saying right now...man that was perfect as we got a PP and we got back into the game.
