Well, he did score.... The referees just decided not to allow it.

I believe that....

poop calls are made all the time. Doesn't change the fact that we lost the first two games because of a lack of PLAYOFF team effort from the goal out to the forwards and bench. We can win in the regular season like this, but playoff Hockey, is a quick way to the off season.

Tampa isnt a major market team. You think the league wants to have The Lightning advance as oppose to having an Original Six team? They care about ratings, marquee matchups. Do you ever see Tampa as a feature rivalry special on NBC? Tampa would have to beat the teams, the refs and the league as they did in '04

That was a good goal
- Byfuglien Ate Me

It's an absolute brutal call.

This is why the coach's challenge needs to be implemented. This is so embarrassing for the league.

The NHL should just give Montreal this series. BRUTALLLLLLL!!!!!!

As much as I love what these guys have accomplished and what great things they have done in tough times, that is one (frank)ing tall order! Hard, but not impossible.

Even Montreal fans are saying this officiating is brutal! I assure you its by design!

The rookie ref is screwing you guys. Exciting game though

Full of senior citizens that watch daytime television not hockey

It's an absolute brutal call.

Agree, classy comment from a Habs fan.

if montreal goes onto win this series, thats the turning point
Ron McClearn saying the refs made right call

Unbelievable (frank) the refs prust fuking takes out our captain without any repercussions. NHL what a joke you can't do a video review in the playoffs to determine if price was indeed interfered with. Just because Price is flopping like a fish

The reffing in this game is an embarrassment to the NHL
- Byfuglien Ate Me

Not just this game. It's been going on all season.

That brutal disallowed goal call made up for that BS penalty call that led to TB first goal. It all evens out in the end. 2-1 MTL

The NHL should just give Montreal this series. BRUTALLLLLLL!!!!!!

Looks like that is exactly what's happening here

what happened? they are saying Cooper went after the refs...?

Except for the fact that Price was able to get back into position, as evidenced by the fact that the puck went under him.

Stamkos back for the third.

Lets not pretend that a goalie who had to sprawl and dive was "able to get back into position"
