Carter's gonna bury a goal this period or OT

I doubt the Kings are getting a 5 on 3 pp.

Now I could be a bit biased with this, but I think Flyer/Pens was a bit more entertaining to watch

It's 2 opposite ends of the spectrum. Kind of goes with personal preference.

As an example, some people like to see a 9-8 baseball game where each team hits 3 home runs. Others like to see a 2-1 game where each team gets 3 hits.

A lot sloppier too though.

This looks like pre-lockout stuff. I haven't paid as close attention to NHL news the past several weeks as usual, but did I see something about the NHL meeting with the officials to "fix" the obstruction again? Is that something they do every year, or is it sort of special to this year?

Adam Oates is like the Leonard Nimoy of the NHL.

I'm the wrong guy to ask. I don't really pay much attention to that stuff. I just hope the season starts on time, and then learn the new rules during the preseason or whatever. Saves a lot of gray hairs, as opposed to trying to look through the smoke of BS reports and other stuff like that.

and they call THAT NOW?

Speaking of obstruction...

They make that call with 3 minutes left in the 3rd period of the SCF??

I mean it definitely is a penalty, but you NEVER see that called, even in the regular season, ya know??

You can say that again

2 penalties that shouldn't have been called...

it's exactly why the nhl is so frustrating.

The league is comical.

At least there might be some excitement in a 4 on 4 situation to end the period.

Promptly succeeded by a BS interference call. Make up or not

...........and they let the obvious Parise interference go in the second period. I don't mind them calling it late in the 3rd, but you gotta call them all then.

It gets called all the time. It stopped getting called after the 1st round.

Now would be a heck of a time to get the PP goin haha

WTF was Brown doing there?

NBC gave him loot to end the game before OT.

Man this would be great if it went to a shootout. Stupid playoffs

AUTHOR'S NOTE: I know you're sarcastic. Still a stellar gif usage though

More chances in the first 3 minutes of OT than the rest of the game combined.

Here we go, why don't the do this the entire game? Guess they just want to go home

Can Kopitar pull it off again?
