BS call... The refs are assclowns tonight.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

This has everything to do with what happened last game. The refs think they have to lay down the law early. They might cost the Leafs this game in doing so. NHL refs try to do way too much to influence the game.

That was a stupid call, not a stupid penalty. He hit him clean on the hip. Awful officiating as always
- lumlums

definitely a minor, pang said it best. it's a textbook boarding call.

brutal, brutal call. could cost em the game.

Five?

Definatly a penalty, but not a major.

I could live with a minor, I mean you can see how it gets called.

you can debate if it should be 2 or 5.... but that was not clean.

Agreed buddy.. I hate how they protect the Dirty Montreal Midgets... it happens in every game...

didn't see a penalty when they ran Scrivens earlier... but a pu$$y gets a little chaffe and it is a double minor.

F that we will still win.. and they will still get KO'd

I hope this gives the Leafs momentum. Kill off the penalty and that should give them a boost.

Absolutely nobody on TSN's panel seemed to think so.

How was that a 5 major??

Hey hey hey now...my sweet little 10 year old girl goes to Catholic school - I don't want to think about this...but wait...my wife is Catholic too...I see what you mean.

Except for your wife or daughter always exceptions

ray ferraro's a moron.

no way that was a 5 minute hit from behind, that's a 2 minute boarding call.

Its not even that. He hits him on the hip, Georges sold it like the wussy that he is

ya... just like Hall's hit on Buttercup

I'm still amazed that Brown's old Domi dump and chase worked on that goal.

You want to give him two, fine give him two. I don't agree with it.

Five is a joke.

- Jeffmt

interesting perspective, i'd have to agree.

refs have to be consistent. they can't be making potential game changing calls basaed on the need to lay the law down.

the reffing has been horrible this season. they need more accountability.

ya... just like Hall's hit on Buttercup

HAHA! You tell him!

lol how the hell is that a 5 minute major and a game?
- blahman20

it's a dangerous play. it's taking advantage of a player in a vulnerable position.

if you're the Leafs and you're gonna run around all period the way they did, looking to decapitate guys, you're putting a bull's eye on your back and you get nailed with these calls. it's very simple.

Not that dirty.

5 and a game for throwing the Habs around like rag dolls? This could be a long night...
- Leeman4Gilmour

When you said "ragdoll" all I could see in my mind was poor little helpless Brian McCabe being ragdolled by Chara using one hand. lol.

Carry on.

We all laugh about it in the dressing room, though.

Its not even that. He hits him on the hip, Georges sold it like the wussy that he is
- lumlums

you can't hit someone in a position where they are prone to falling into the boards, regardless of whether it's in the numbers or in the hip. it's a textbook boarding penalty.

- lumlums

its a penality... but not 5 and game.

Refs are worried about the game getting out of hand. They needn't worry.. I'm sure Plekanec's teammates told him not to try that slashing nonsence again.

I'm more concerned about the penalty that was going to be called against Gunnarson. It was Armstrong with his hand lose - grabbing Gunnarson. That was a bad sign.

HAHA! You tell him!
- weirdoh

I better get outta here!

ha, leafs thread, can always count on it to get a good laugh during intermissions

keep it up guys

you can debate if it should be 2 or 5.... but that was not clean.
- robin_steele264

It was as clean as your *mom/sister/other close female relative...

*Delete as appropriate


How are you doing anyways, its been a while since I saw those tears on my screen?
