It's on NHL Network.
Also, I feel like I wouldn't be surprised to see the Stars score 12 goals in this one. I also wouldn't be surprised to see the Bruins put their best performance on in weeks. I just don't know.

So they say McQuaid knocked the net off on purpose, even though him trying to plant and clear the puck and having it go off his skate is what actually put it in.
Yeah, I was ready to ask if anyone really thinks they don't deserve to be down by 2 so far. I really don't want to see Sweeney commit prospects/picks to anything other than a long-term solution on defense.
Nah, that one was right. Just because McQuaid is out of control trying to stop the puck you can't allow the D to be able to knock the net off with no contact by the offensive team, if the puck crosses the line it counts as if the net were still on.
The other one was definitely goalie interference though.

Honestly, Kevan has looked slightly better the last couple nights, I think (and he looked really good on the first PK tonight.
I just don't think they just don't have a true top defenseman anywhere on the roster (I'm not even sure they have a #2.... Krug is the only who MIGHT qualify, but he is more offensive), and teams like Dallas will usually take advantage of that.
I think Jaffe screwed up the citation. In this year's rule book, I see the pertinent rule at 63.6.
Soooo.. it shouldn't have been a goal? Did it ever cross the goal line?
Edit: A birthday party just started and I am no longer watching, so i haven't seen any more replays.
I just don't see how those replays meet the standard of "purposely knocked the net off". At the time he ran into the post, the puck wasn't even moving towards the net. It bounced off his skate and headed back towards the already dislodged net.
No, he's right that it should've been a goal. He's also right that the ref had no need to specify that McQuaid dislodged the net intentionally. All he had to say was that McQuaid had dislodged the net after Sharp had shot and the puck would have crossed the line with the net in place. The intent was a pointless qualifier.
Yeah i was just looking for it as well, and thats the one I was going to post here too. McQuaid redirects the puck while the net is still on the moorings, so even though he knocks it off after it counts as if the goal is still on the posts.
The goalie interference thing needs to be looked at this offseason and better defined. Is it a zero tolerance thing, because this season I've seen some real ticky tack stuff get called interference, and yet you get this goal get called. Its one of those things that feels like its a dartboard call.
