Anthony Travalgia: Game 1 victory worth the wait The Bruins picked up the first win of the series Wednesday morning, a day after Tuesday's Game 1 was postponed due to the 5 OT game involving the Lightning and Blue Jackets.

Blown call on the Coyle goal. No doubt about it. Canes unlucky but win in 6.

If that call did not stand would have been 1-1. Not really different from 2-2 is it?

That call really wasn't even that terrible. Yeah you want a faster whistle but Mrazek didn't have that puck long before it was hit free. Play to the whistle.

I am not sure how Brind'Amour is losing his poop over that. Talk about begging for help.

Bruins in cinco.

Bruins had me feeling a certain level of nervousness after round robin games. Once we drew Carolina I felt much better. Lots of talk about how good the canes have been but.......it's still Carolina. Bruins in 5

They also scored a shorty right after, which erases any whining about us getting a "gift goal". Brind'Amour needs to pull up his big boy pants

The problem I have with the call is that it's weirdly inconsistent.

If the ruling is that Mrazek had control of the puck, negating the hand pass, then knocking the puck out of his glove is goalie interference.

That, it turns out, WAS the ruling, but because the refs wouldn't clarify how they saw it on the ice, he didn't know which aspect to challenge.

What a joke.

Apart from that, apparently you can straight up slash a guy's stick out of his hands in OT and it;'s not a call, but tripping one the other way is?

Just bizarre and frustrating.

Oh come on, and what about the clear high stick to Bergy's nose that wasn't called...plenty of missed calls and bad calls in pretty much every game. They go both ways. The simple fact is that if JD could have hit the side of a barn yesterday it would have been a blowout.

DeBrusk had a lot of good looks yesterday, hope he's not the next Danny Paille

To be clear, Boston was quite clearly the better team and deserved to win the game, Its just that for a league that purports to want to "get the call right" they sure do a terrible job of it an awful lot of the time.
