Claude Balls Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Feel bad for Joonas, he played lights out. Milbury - " I'm not sure which goalie played better, I can't decide". How bout the one with 85 saves that blew the old record out of the water, vs 61 saves? Guy is such a doosh.

carpandean Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 Milbury (and others) seem so certain that Hedman did not take a penalty against Atkinson, but I'm not convinced. Hedman came from behind (Atkinson had a step), swung his stick around, missed the puck and hit Atkinson on the skate. This caused Atkinson to go down and lose control of the puck. What am I missing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this, and was wondering what everyone else on the broadcast saw. He didn’t touch the puck, he actually whacked Cams skates instead.

There was even a worse non-call on Seth Jones, earlier in the OT's, who was tackled by the head when he was in alone on the goalie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take was that Hedman had his left glove against his lower back and gave him a push, which is legal, and he lost his balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't even make a big deal of it during the broadcast, but play was going end to end at the time without any whistles. It was pretty blatant to me. I'll look around though.

I didn’t think it was even close to a penalty. And I hate Tampa. Good no call. Now, the blatant elbow to Gerbe’s head I can’t explain.

Won't even be reviewed by player safety I bet. Edited August 12, 2020 by Claude Balls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Balls Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 As much as I can't stand Pierre, he had the line of the night after the Vegas 3rd goal. Shoulda been stopped by Crawford. "That goal's got odor all over it" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpandean Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 Both "penalties": I could see an argument that, despite missing the puck and hitting Atkinson's skate, it didn't seem cause the fall. Rather, as pastajoe said, it was the push in lower back that pushed him down. Tough one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob_sauve28 Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 That was a game for the ages yesterday. Seth Jones and Victor Hedman show why we really need Dahlin to mature into solid game controlling d-man. He's got time to do it, let's get it right! Can Dahlin be as good as them two?
