You’re right, and I certainly wasn’t trying to argue the refs have been good or even adequate. Just that a true contender should be able to deal with a game where the refs suck without completely turtling.

Whatever, it’s one game. As others have said maybe this lights a fire under their ass and they take back momentum in Game 4.
When you have two even teams and officiating this lopsided it swings the game big time.

I need a splice of Olczyk waxing poetic for Cooper's respect for the game with a gif of him yelling "You guys are fucking cunts" x 3 at the stripes after last night's offside review

The way Eddie keeps talking about "those 2 bad penalties" you would think they were some of the most egregious offenses ever.

You guys still prefer listening to these clowns over having to deal with Jack?
Yep. Jack sucks. Eddie is drag, but I like Doc, Forslund and Boucher. I was pretty indifferent to Milbury. I just sorta viewed him as an harmless idiot until he got the boot.

Pierre makes it a tougher equation to solve, but they banished him to the B crew.

Wouldn't mind seeing this for game 4

Marchand - Bergeron - Pastrnak
DeBrusk - Krejci - Kuhlman
Nordstrom - Coyle - Kase
Frederic - Lindholm - Wagner

Kuraly in for Lindholm if he's good to go

What changes will Cassidy make? I've been on the Studnicka bandwagon. Got to get him on the ice for his offensive ability. If Kuraly is ok, get him out there.
Call out the refs? I hate being skeezy but this is so absurd. I mean Charlie just did what Kucherov did and how did that play out? Maroon slew foots a Bruin and nothing is called. Krug is tackled on a breakaway. Chara gets interfered with. Charlie's I dunno glove swipe?

Eddie was rooting for 5-3. I mean wow

Yes I still think Bruce should go full Torts in about 15 minutes

Freddy is an interesting call. I could get behind that. I'd put Clifton back in on D for Lauzon too.

Boston didn’t deal well with adversity no. You know what would have been adversity for Tampa? If maroon was called for his slew foot before any of this began. Let’s call that and see how it plays out you fucks

Ritchie off the post to round this one out.

Not much to be happy about. Stick tap to Vladar, thought he handled himself well. Sorry the shithead skaters didn't feel like playing for you.
