You mean something happened several seconds after a penalty could have been called? That doesn't happen 100 times a night. The Sabres get no benefit of the doubt, sorry.

To me, that trip was a bad miss (and not an intentional noncall!). I don't see that happen very often and it directly led to the turnover that was capitalized on, so I figured it was worth commenting on.

Acknowledging that this may draw some ire, I think that play developed because a trip on Dahlin wasn't called. I held off on posting this until I saw the replay. 

I thought so too at first but he looked to be falling before the guy even got near him, stumbling over the puck. But could easily of been called a trip

Maybe. The issue is, they never showed the broadcast view in the replay. The original looked like a trip, but was fast. Then the overhead view looked like a corkscrew torque of his legs by the stick, but any slipping could coincidentally look like that. Slow mo of the broadcast view would have been the best way to see it for sure.

Which of course is not how the ref sees the game. Sorry if that's "fansplaining" lol.
