They're easing Faulk back into the lineup tonight and something tells me that barring injury we may have seen the last of Marco Scandella.

We've definitely seen the last of Vrana.

It's really a shame that all The Blues' hard work to stay in this game and tie it up would be tossed away by the refs missing an obvious tripping violation, with TWO referees and only 6 skaters on the ice. I was glad to see Neighbours continue his net-front scoring, and Perunovich continue to get more comfortable and effective in The NHL game. Binnington played well, as usual.


Yes, I agree that a play like that that leads to a goal being scored should be reviewable. The NHL should have game officials in Toronto, watching each game, to stop action after a goal where a review is desired by the scored upon team, and review slow motion and all camera views. I don't have a problem with games being slowed down a little more, to make sure calls are as accurate and fair as possible, and no problem with games' protracted length being extended 5 or 10 minutes, to get things right. I also have no problem with refs' calls being questioned, making those who have the most "missed calls" receiving some form of negative recognition for that. We understand that the modern game is too fast for even two refs to judge exactly what is happening every second of 60-65 minutes of play. Having refereeing errors not effect outcomes of games is more important.

I hope that your position on the non-call in tonight's game isn't based on a non-call in in a playoff game in 2019.
My position is that I'm not going to be mad about it. We won in that trade. Now we're back to even.
Just a Russian propaganda account

No way... a few mistakes slipping through is normal for any normal distribution. Trying to master mind a few missed calls out of games by giving the league more oversight sounds like it would create more problems than it fixes.

The replay showed that he hooked him twice… first his right foot and then his left foot, with a zebra looking right at the play. That going unpunished is total bullshit, especially when it directly affects to he outcome of the game. At the bare minimum, the league should issue a statement that even though they can’t fix the fuck-up, there was one… If a coach can question off-sides, and they take a goal off the scorecard, then a coach should be able to question a blatant trip when it leads to a GWG … there’s more officials on the ice than they need anyway… maybe go back to one ref, but make shit like that reviewable.

Nobody likes the offsides review unless it goes their way. Look how wrong the league everything? If total over sight is what you want.. why bother having refs... let the league call the games from Toronto.
