    I’m no rules expert but a) I didn’t think Kolesar’s hit deserved a game misconduct or b) VGK could survive a 5 minute power play. incredibly dumb penalty to take, in any case.

    to me, refs blew the non-goal call in the Leafs game, too.
    1.  I thought it was a 5 minute major.  Was it a game misconduct too?  If so, agreed.  5 minutes was warranted.  I don't think it was malicious, but it was bad luck and injury is part of the rule.  He was hurt.

    2. You saw the puck cross?
    I thought I did. Didn’t they say it had but a whistle had blown?


    Yes and wasn't that view well after the play?  I just never saw a view where the puck crossed as part of the play.  Maybe I'm wrong.  I just went back and watched the TSN coverage and I didn't see it there either.

    The puck went in. No whistle was ever blown. The leafs coaching staff were given 2 different reasons for the no-goal call. 2 years in a row leafs had a goal called back in heartbreaking fashion. Nhl needs technology like tennis and soccer

    I’m all in on the VGK but this possible all warm weather final four kinda sucks.

    except for the VGK. :wink:

    I feel like if the Kraken go to the finals, we'll get a Mike solo anthem :)

    You gave me a reason to cheer for the Kraken lol. 
    Otherwise I’d have no use for any of these teams left. Come to think of it, if Seattle wins, this is Gary Bettman’s wet dream final four. 

    Won’t bother him if Dallas is there either, of course. All of these teams are part of his Southern US growth strategy (started when the North Stars moved to Dallas in ‘93). Bettman has his detractors, but he has made the NHL owners a shit-ton of money and that’s his job.

    Not playoff related… always knew my Canucks would be good golfers, one playoff series win in 12 years will do that, but now they are trying to qualify for major championships.

    The new arena deal for the Coyotes fell through...again. For the life of me I can't understand why they have a team and Québec City does not. One of the all time greatest rivalries was Montreal-Québec. I was just at the arena last fall for Eddie and the pearl jams...amazing venue.

    PHX doesn’t deserve a team.

    Quebec City isnt going to get them.  

    It'll probably be Houston, with a Dark Horse of Salt Lake City.

    Clearly not at this point. Why would they want an actual hockey city anyways?
