Lemaire: Too Many Flyers

Jacques Lemaire is unhappy with the officials for penalizing his team in the second period for the same infraction he claims the Flyers committed in OT:

Too many men on the ice.

“Nobody talked about them having too many guys just before our penalty [against David Clarkson],” Lemaire said tonight on a conference call with reporters.

“Nobody saw that. We were yelling. A guy was at center ice and nobody said a word about it. That was before the winning goal. Before the power play they had too many men on the ice.”

I didn't see it; I didn't hear a single person mention it after the game, either.

But I agree with Lemaire on this. The call against the Devils in the second period was ticky-tacky for a playoff game. The officials did their best to ruin the game.

BTW: Mike Richards had some fun today with the media, thanks to Ian Laperriere. Happy to see the Flyers captain relaxed and laughing and getting along with people.

Here's my story about that on CSNPhilly.com:
