I mean, that’s a penalty but it’s anyone’s guess as to when they’ll actually call it so you can’t blame Grz.

That was uncalled earlier in the game. At the time the NBC guys said that needs to be the standard. Interesting that they're silent now

That’s a rule book penalty but it happens a dozen times per game.

Exactly. They called it because of the distance he skated. Doesn’t make it less of a penalty the others eight times, but when you’re calculating, “how bad does it look?” instead of “Is it a penalty?” That’s what happens.

They need to stay out of the fucking box. Whine about the refs and I agree but they outplay this team 5 on 5 and keep getting beat on the PP. learn the lesson

The problem is they’re called for plays that are uncalled 9/10 times.

But if they overcompensate to avoid even bullshit penalties then they’ll get locked down by the Islanders and lose every puck battle.
