Say what you want, we had our changes, but their game tying goal and game winning goal came on horrible calls from that as-hole. those sort of calls are when i agree with people that want the old days back. a play that had nothing to do with breaking up a scoring chance, and as soon as JP's stick got stuck he even KNEW FUGGING enough to let it go and avoid a call and that asswipe makes a call like that in OT.....of a 2-2 series......of a Conference Final......that sucks. also, anyone notice that Staal has become a bit of a little whiny bitch? everytime he gets touched he looks for a call? it is too bad b/c he is a good player and great for the leauge but he acts like a b!tch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR HOLLIDAY Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 They were terrible calls, the one on McKee the guy was holding his stick after he crunched McKee with a solid hit, how the hell do you call that a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he dove big time on that Drury trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffalOhio Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 In addition to whining, I think he has turned into a bit of a diver. I thought he dove big time on that Drury trip. I completely agree with that. The stick was already gone when he jumped into his dive. Ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he has one of the best in the business teaching him some new tricks. No one whines, & dives like Mark Recchi... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say what you want, we had our changes, but their game tying goal and game winning goal came on horrible calls from that as-hole. The Sabres had a chance to win the game on the PP at the start of OT and came up short. You put your stick on a player and your going to get called. I think with the lack of defenseman, the Sabres had to make an effort to stay out of the penalty box, but instead took one silly penalty after another.

ExiledInIllinois Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Silly penalty? Cue J.P. Dumont, Zhitnik's protege when it comes to lazy moronic penalties. True. His stick WAS up and around the Carolina player, right in the middle of the sweater... Ya, he let go to say: "Look I am not even holding it, he is!" Still... Those are the new rules. I think the carolina player was very shrewd to latch onto it for added effect! Dumb, dumb penalty... Now we are wishing we had Fraser or the donut popper? One game at a time now... Game 6 is first on the radar... Slow and easy wins the race... :D I should replace "silly" with "stupid". Like I said above Blue... The Carolina player was very good at making it look like a hook by holding it up there... You think J.P. wanted to leave it there? Carolina does have some real fine actors with some shrewd skills.

The Sabres never should have left the game in his hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottnc Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 I remember back when the playoffs started and the league promised the fans the games would be called the same way they have all year long. They started out OK but I have seen it deteriorate with each successive round of the playoffs. It's just the inconsistency that drives me nuts. They'll call everything for part of a game, and then start letting everything go. How do the players know how to deal with that wondering which part of the game they're in?

Rabbit151 Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 At least when Roy throws himself to the ice, he is only making the refs notice a penalty that is taking place. He's not making it up. How many times have you seen Carolina grab the Sabres stick, by clamping it against their body with the elbow? Sometimes a Sabre foolishly slaps at a Hurricane and they grab on. Other times, the Hurricane initiates the contact ( like the McKee penalty ) and latches on to the stick and won't let go til they get the call. How stupid are these refs? Do they ever watch the film of the game the next day to see which players and which team are making them look like idiots? I knew the Hurricanes were going to score on that McKee penalty. That was one of the worst calls ever. The Hurricane player completely Buffaloed the ref. I really hope he sees the film of that today, and so do the rest of the refs, so they can be ready for that deception on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know....not the same level as NHL, but both said that you can't call that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
