2017 NHL Playoffs

Horseshit call but a championship team has to be good enough to overcome that call

A lot of Habs fans I know hate PK. I didn't watch enough of him with the Habs to know why but I often hear that he took too many chances. Never really understood the hate as PK didn't ask to be traded

Too bad for the Preds, I was hoping they'd win the Cup this year.

One bad call from a ref did them in last night. The other ref should have been able to turn that "dead" play call over, as he could still see the puck. Pollock blew too early, the whistle, I would assume that's a lifetime problem with blowing too early for him, but I digress. The officials should have been able to convene on ice and then do a review on this, or there should be a coaches challenge allowed here, as surely the other ref or the linesman could see that puck. The goal would have been allowed if it had trickled in on its own ffs and coaches can challenge off sides and goaltender interference, when again, it's an officials call on ice. This rule is dated, back to when there was only one ref on the ice, it's time for an update for this as it is costly for a team.

I hope a Canadian team win next year or the 30 other teams to win next year. The Preds got robbed , this series should gotten to game 7. The Refs helped Pens win.

:sad: Butthurt so bad. Oooooo.

Actually no, it wouldn't have counted. Once the whistle went the play was dead, period. The puck needs to cross the line before the whistle for it to count.

So happy for Kessel. Hope he brings the Cup to Toronto and march in the Gay Pride Parade.

He brought last year, Why would Kessel bring back to Toronto? Kessel does not go to the Gay Pride Parade LOL.

 

[kyleb899]

Will the Vegas Golden Knights win cup before any Canadian NHL teams ? It likely

Will the three young guns Connor McDavid, Auston Matthews and Patrik Laine be better than Sidney Crosby

You probably a Leafs fan LOL

That wouldn't change the fact that the team you were rooting for and you made your prediction on LOST. Suck it up kid.

And that's along with your prediction that the Leafs would get swept.

I do have to give you credit for showing everybody how much you know.

My future prediction is the Leafs will never win a cup again LOL.

If it had trickled in, it would have been open to video review and therefore deemed a goal by all standards.

Yes, it is possible for the play to be reviewed IF the referee stopped the play by blowing his whistle but the puck went into the net without being touched by anyone else. On the specific play however, Cissons (not the original shooter) put the puck into the net after the whistle was blown. This was the reason why there was no video review on the play

Apparently some Predator players were not happy with Subban making comments about Crosby. Subban may be a talent but he is also seen as a hot dog and may not be a good fit in the dressing room. If someone like Kadri can change his attitude for the better, maybe just maybe, there is still hope for Subban.

Getting what you want usually happens when you work hard, are talented and considered one of the best to ever play the game and is a leader of a team that rely on your leadership to take them to the ultimate level. 3 Stanley Cups, 2 gold medals, World championship gold medal and a World Cup of Hockey championship. Personal accomplishments include 2 Conn Smythe trophies, 2 Hart trophies, 3 time Lester B Pearson award winner and numerous Art Ross, Maurice Richard and all star selections. All before the age of 30.

You also forget he always get way with anything. You should never won the 2 conn Smythe Trophies, Matt Murray should won last year and Jake Guentzel should won this year.

Obviously your opinion means much more than those who voted Crosby as the playoffs MVP. Crosbys performance in the last 3 games cemented his selection. Crosby averaged slightly over a point a game with 27 points (as opposed to Guentzels 21 points) and only Malkin had more points (28). Your selection of Guentzel above Crosby may seem logical to you. Too bad your opinion means absolutely nothing. Crosby, 2017 Stanley Cup Champion and MVP!!!!!!!!

you do realize that Jake Guentzels tie the record of points by rookie in a single post season.

Yes I do and so did most everyone else including those who voted Crosby as the MVP of the 2017 Stanley Cup playoffs. Exactly why do you keep harping on this. I get it that your pick did not win the Stanley Cup and that you are not a Crosby fan. Get over it. The better team won the Stanley Cup and Crosby was selected as the MVP. For your sake, I hope he doesn't win the NHL MVP award or the Lester B Pearson award this season.
