Not my thinking, but his post was pretty clear that he thinks Bettman is corrupt and judging by last nights officiating I have to agree.

You do know that there is nothing on those so called space ships that would stop the radiation from the Van Allen belt.

I don’t think there is conspiracy against teams in playoffs, but I do think there is incompetent reffing that needs to be dealt with. It’s getting out of hand. The score based reffing is annoying. Or the makeup calls because you poop the bed on the 1st call is what annoys me. Everyone is human but you have the best players in the world in the nhl. You need the best refs as well.

i agree with the reffing - inconsistent. i advocated the same thing in the nfl. and then the "replacement refs" fiasco happened and immediately realized the err of my ways lol.

Clearly Bettman would risk the integrity of the league, his job and legacy in order to stop the biggest and most lucrative market in the league from advancing. It's the only sensible explanation for the sense of unfairness Leaf fans felt while watching the game.

Hah ya I remember that. My packers lost to the Seahawks on replacement reffing. It just seems like there could be better officiating, especially with 4 guys on the ice.

Stanley Kubrick filmed them using his experience making 2001. He also filmed the draft lotto. He never died, of course.

the Leafs have to dump the puck in goon-head Chara's corner and keep laying the body on him, i don't care that he is huge, those hits will take a toll on him and he will start coughing up the puck.

Backes is also a cement head and i would love to see the "Muslim Missile" run him over like he did to McAvoy and Krejci last night.

I couldn't watch the game but heard it on the radio. Can someone explain what I was hearing? Backes had a double minor but was serving the full 4 minutes?

No one knows what the refs were thinking. Gardiner got a penalty for getting punched in the face.

Bozak got a penalty because Nash broke his stick shooting the puck.

I hope game 6 is a little more fair. If the refs pull that stunt again, we're done.

I think the Jets will win that series. But it'll be a fun one to watch!

Linden was at the Marlies game in TO, obviously to watch his own team.

But you got to wonder, with the Leafs rumoured interest in Tanev, I wonder if he's looking at a package.

I know a lot of you don't like him because he's a Canuck, and I agree that Benning thinks too highly of him. But the Leafs may be willing to throw something extra in it with all these wingers.

Now that the Leafs are a team that is destined to make it to the post season every year, they can cut down Tanevs playing time a bit to avoid injury for when t counts. The playoffs.
