Pretty obvious that the league, media, etc., want Pittsburgh to win. It's sickening.

Crosby should have been called for interference on the 5-3.

The 5-3 never should have happened. How you call and 2nd penalty there when those situations are an absolute free for all 99% of the time is beyond me.

Disallowed Preds goal was inconclusive.

Refs have decided game 1.

Looking forward to the smug blog from RW tomorrow

thanks garth

exactly. its like they looked at some of the rule/culture changes the NHL made and got together and said which of these will (frank) up the momentum of our broadcasts the most while providing the least amount of benefit to our overall product?

oh (frank) yeah thats the one.

my friend still swears that Ottawa OT goal in the rangers series was offside. it looked the same as the Preds goal today. NHL really gotta get their act together

thank you for being reasonable. thats exactly what i was trying to say. we've all seen way worse calls throughout the course of the season. this one is just magnified because you know Stanley Cup Finals.

Alright I gotta get back to studying. Good luck to y'all. Cant say I'll be rooting for you but also can't say im jealous as frank of you guys right now.

I remember reading some of those emails from the concussion case. There's a reason why they didn't want them out for public consumption. They really exposed the brain dead culture of those in power.

Thanks for the rest.

I guess we should start banning people from Nashville from attending our games if they are gonna do poop like that.

They showed it again at the beginning of the period...u can see hornie not even looking and the stick hits the skate just enough so he trips over his other foot...its kinda a meh call..but hey hornie usually can't buy a call

I hate copycats. Nash needs to get it's own tradition.

Well at least that call I believe more than the fake interference

Refs hate us x2.

Well at least that call I believe more than the fake interference
