Screw Jumbo Scrub. He made a few derogatory remarks about the Rangers a few years back. He can go Cupless the rest of his career!!

And this coming from a Classless Ranger fan … GO ISLANDERS

Save it. Sh!tty calls happen. The phantom goalie interference by Couture in game two because of Fleury's acting (which was a 2 goal swing & decided the game) plus Eakin's high-stick goal that was allowed to stand in game 7 is proof....it works that way for both sides. Any reason why the Knights couldn't stop any of those 4 goals on the PK?

Live by the sword, die by it. T.S.

....& the "Hockey Gods" may be finally doing something right after the Sharks have routinely been on the losing end of NHL officiating & "DOPS" reviews since their inception....

Why do you guys keep using the Eakins goal as an example, for....? Eakins goal was video reviewed and the play stood because his stick wasn't higher than his shoulders...which is the rule when the player isn't immediately in front of the net, in which case the crossbar is the threshold for a good or bad (high stick) goal.

For all the trash you guys like to talk about Knights fans, you sure aren't well versed in the actual rules of the game.

You're absolutely wrong. The point of reference for a goal on a high stick is the crossbar, no matter where he is on the ice. Don't know where you got that 'immediately in front of the net' bs from.

I'm pulling for the sharks this series. There's a few guys on that team I'd like to see win a cup. But they will never get a break like they did the other night. Good on them for taking full advantage, but it's not going to get easier.

No. No it is not destiny. It's reactionary officiating. San Jose is a 6/10 hockey club from a 3/10 city and is going to get smacked down.

You're way wrong. It is always the crossbar on goals. Above shoulder height is for high sticking penalties.
