Trevor Daley's season is over, and Pittsburgh is going to Fleury in net.

It worked for St. Louis last night, but I'm not a fan of unforced goalie changes this deep into the playoffs.

I think there's a little bit of a difference here as Fleury is the clear-cut #1 goalie in Pittsburgh. He just got hurt. And I don't think Murray has been as sharp as he was since about game four or five against Washington.

Daley's loss hurts, a lot. And although the hit that Callahan gave him didn't look overly dirty, much like you guys with Matt Cooke I have a hard time giving him the benefit of the doubt after game one.

Refs letting everything go right now. Looks like they missed a high stick that knocked Kucherov out then another blatant trip of Crosby(?).

Replay shows the ref clearly saw the high stick right in front of him. Even helped get him off the ice.

I couldn't see who got picked, but between him and 87 being really slow to react to Garrison, he was literally allowed to walk right to the dot and shoot.

Like, how far back can you challenge something? I understand if that was a bang bang play, but the "offsides" happened 10, 12 strides before the goal.

With instant replay, they have to change the rule to something like intent.

I don't think they got that right because it's not clear that Drouin's right heel is off the ice and therefore, offsides. Classic example of not enough info to overturn, unless they have a different view than NBC's.

Funny, I thought it was pretty clear that both skates were up. Tampa coaches thought so too. Dumb rule, but right call.

I *think* he was offsides, too, but a play is only supposed to be overturned when conclusive video evidence exists. We can see Drouin's left skate is off the ice after Killorn is already in the zone, but because of the angle of the video we can't see whether Drouin's left heel is off the ice. The reviewer had to assume it was off the ice at the moment Killorn entered the zone, something video review didn't support. Tough break for Tampa (although it would have been a tough break for Pittsburgh had it stood since we all think he was offsides). That's hockey.

Not a great call, JR. Quit changing the criteria for review.

The reviewer (and the Tampa) bench also saw the blue line camera. I have a feeling if nbc ever gets around to showing it we'll understand why the Tampa bench immediately said offside and didn't argue the call at all.

This would be a good time to win a game seven at home for the first time ever.

And obviously starting Fleury on Sunday didn't work out so hot but it did give the kid some extra time that it looked like he needed.

That can't be right. I can think of at least the 1991 Devils series where they won Game 7 at home.

Actually just that and the 1995 Caps series. Ask us Bruins fans about home Game 7s outside of 2011. :mad:

Chiming in late but this was my exact thought when I saw the review. I can't believe they thought that was enough to overturn the entire sequence.
