Can't overstate the importance of Bergeron making 2 separate stick checks to kill the first ~35 seconds of that penalty on his own. That was a clinic

LOL the look on McAvoy's face saying "what a pass... what a pass... thank god I buried that one"

That's an insane pass at full speed by Debrusk when I'm sure Cassidy has been screaming at them to shoot all night.

Great win tonight. And the Leafs lose.

It’s a legitimately sickening feel when you miss a tap in on a great pass. Let alone in OT in the NHL. Hilarious.

Was listening on the radio- Was there ever definitive answer on the hand pass at the end of regulation? Sirott is useless and Beers thought it was close but never committed either way.

They showed it a number of times after the game and gun to my head I’d say it grazed the stick, but I’m only 51% sure so the call was far from egregious if wrong.

Super slo mo it looks like he just clips it with his stick. But ref doesn’t have that advantage.

The puck was definitely moved forward with a glove, but the slow-mo showed it hitting the same Hawks player's stick before the next touch. It was very subtle though.

Grassy ass. We’ll take it.
Yeah everyone agrees that in super slow mo it’s 50/50 if he touched it with his stick after using his hand, so full speed it looked like a hand pass. Reasonable call.

Is McAvoy out of concussion protocol yet? Debrusk could get 3-5 for leaving his feet...

That was beautiful, though. Finally one where he didn't have to make a decision. Hopefully it sparks his offense a bit.
