NHL 2022

well Jason will be mad as I am not updateing at 5pm everyday,
sorry work is intruppting Jason

Rangers won today series 2-1 now for canes

Whoda thunk it, Tampa leading Florida 3-0

Avs leading 2-1 over Blues.

Calgary Edmonton 1-1 game 3 tonight
I think might be most entertianing series
but far to late for working folks.
tonight 9 pm start so hope to catch some of this one.
 
Running the goalies seems to be a theme in these playoffs. Mike Smith and Jordan Binnington are the latest ones. Not sure about Smith but Binnington is gone for the rest of the series. Big blow to the Blues. I think the hopes they had rested primarily on him stealing the show. Like he did in game 2.
 
To say refing in NHL is bad in likely being polite.
My teams out and best I can tell most are so
we pick a team to cheer to cheer for and follow the playoffs
its the Canadian thing to do.

So I watched what I could of east and west with interest
and not sure why buy sorta pick edmonton to root for
mostly because most said they wouldn't get this far.

well in the finals now., wild ride with Calgary and in fairness Colorado
likely the better teams, much deeper etc, but as the say you have to play.
SO NHL got games starting better times in the east so we don't have to stay up
until 2 am to watch some of the games.

I turn it on and Av's taking it to Edmonton in first, but 2-2 with 25 seconds left
and very controversial call made, refs saying off side.
55 years of playing and watching hockey it was offside all day long,
they some how said the best defencemen in NHL did not have control of
puck for 1 foot so not offside :ROFLMAO: so now its 3-2 trust me watch replay its offside
by 2' all day long

It gets better, then Edmonton get penalty for failed bid to over turn play,
Av's score early in 2nd, now 4-2, ow he gets better, 5th goal was a missed Icing call
so now 5-2, at this point I watch a bit of third and go to bed, figuring it over
and it was 8-6 final.

But if you do the math
Edmonton 6 goals
Av's 5 goals and
refs 3 goals ( gifted to Av's
making it 8-6 Av's for win

but real math says Edmonton won,
now in fairness refing could get worse, but Edmonton has to be happy
because it lost due to bad refing even though they were outplayed,
This could be fun to watch.


tonight we get to see Tampa at Rangers LOL

Any guess on NHL's bettmen wants in finals LOL
 
It was one of the strangest calls I’ve seen in a while. I like most said offside goal won’t count. CBC announcers say it’s coming back still be a tie game. Call after some time was goal. What? How? Makes no sense.

So I had to hear what the panel had to say about it since that was pretty much intermission. Friedman said he had texted two video goal review judges from two other NHL teams out of the playoffs and both said good goal. What? How?

I guess from listening to a couple different people they ruled it as a “tag up” delayed offside scenario. What? How? Makar batted it across the line and it didn’t “touch” his stick again until the skates of the offside player got back so he was ruled to have “tagged up” and that’s why it counted. What? How?

I’ve never heard of that before, never seen that before and seems to be a big stretch on the tag up rule. Be interesting to see if the NHL talks about it at all this summer or even before the playoffs are over. I suspect that something will or should change. As to what and how, who knows lol.
