    I have to admit that I'm giggling a little bit. You don't have a right to dislike the outcome if you stand around on defense in overtime.

    How about the opponent getting a free goal in a game that goes to OT?

    Nope. Stood around on defense in overtime, so no bitching.

    (Yes)

    Canucks must have a really comfy penalty box or something.

    Ugh, Helm had emergency surgery, probably to fix cut tendons by a skate. He's done. Which means the fourth line will be useless and the third line will be semi-useless.

    I didn't see what happened to Helm, I just heard the announcers say "Helm is out with an upper-body injury". Do you have any specifics?

    He hit Radulov, skate come up on him, sliced his wrist.

    That was a really stupid hit even if the ref's weren't calling the game super tight.

    Luongo's the only Canuck who IS playing well tonight. I'm having flashbacks to 2007...

    EDIT: Ugh, I should have known better than to post that. My jinxing game is in playoff shape, clearly.

    I was about to come on here and say that. Still, good game so far even with that.

    Good win for the Kings. Had flashbacks to all the times where the Kings would dominate play, only to lose on a flukey goal. Dustin Pancakes Penner getting the GWG was a nice touch. Onto Game 2!

    Kind of like that missed icing call resulting a goal, and that bullshit Rinaldo penalty. It goes both ways.

    Just an fyi, icing is up to referees discretion, offsides isn't.

    Are we talking about the Steve Sullivan non-icing? If I recall correctly, he was out-muscled/out-skated but got to the puck first because he's so damn crafty.

    I actually have no idea what we are talking about, I was just pointing out that 'missing' an icing isn't necessarily the case.

    yeah that's the one that people are talking about. the other reason i've heard it wasn't an icing was the philly d pinched on dupuis and stopped him from making a play on the puck, so it was waved off.

    Whatever. The Pens were on the wrong side of a call (it happens), but they could've overcome it if they played more than 15 minutes of hockey. First round or not, that's not how people win in the playoffs.

    Still, I hate Briere's Keebler face and Hartnell's Ronald McDonald antics.

    Word, he committed to the poke check when Briere was like 6 feet away.

    I don't know what Fleury was trying to accomplish on the first Briere goal, made his move way too early and left the entire top of the net free.

    Slightly off-topic, but does anyone here have any experience with using NHL Gamecenter on the Playstation 3? If so, shoot me a PM, I have a few questions concerning how it works: I need to find a reliable way to watch playoff hockey on the PS3.

    You might find a bit more help in the NHL 12/13 thread in G&T, if there is one.

    on a related note, are any of the games streaming online (legally, on NHL.com or NBCsports.com)? I've looked but it's unclear. I just have class until 8:30 tonight, and want to sneak some of the Bruins game

    You might want to check out CBC Sports. They mentioned something about streaming the game, but I have no clue if it will work in the US

    Puck Daddy pretty much shares my feelings on the Weber decision. I can understand why they shied away from a suspension, but it was the wrong one as it sends the wrong message and may even encourage teams to be dishonest to get the results they want from Shannahan.

    On a tangent, I personally think Shannahan needs to disregard any injury (or lack of injury for that matter) when making decisions about supplemental discipline. Just because a guy walks away from a dirty hit doesn't mean the hit wasn't dirty.

    I don't have a GameCenter sub, but as I understand it, you have to buy the PS3 app (unless you have Playstation Plus), then you have to have a GameCenter subscription. You basically get dinged twice.

    I checked CBC Sports last night to catch the Pens/Flyers game, but CBC wasn't steaming the game :(

    I just want to make sure that NHL Gamecenter actually streams the playoff games live, and not the 48-hours after BS. The FAQ is vague on the details, and before I shell out the cash, I want make sure it works.

    Here's the alleged blown icing call:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz8FDBL4-mU

    For the record, Campbell apologized for the missed offsides call, but nothing about the icing...

    Edit: I just want to clarify that deep down what upsets me is that we blew a 3 goal lead. Refs or no refs, I'm never going to feel like one of our leads is safe for the entire post season. If you can't keep up a 3 goal lead on a team you hate because you can't get it up, when the hell can you win? I am mad and the internet needs to know it.

    Because the NHL basically relaxes discipline in the playoffs. And Zetterberg wasn't hurt and we have an insane outcome based suspension policy.

    It's all that's on YouTube. Compared to a dozen videos about the offsides and corresponding videos of analysts talking about it.

    So, take that for what it's worth.
