The start of a Sacco-rine wining streak?

The effort has definitely been better the last three games. They still can’t score, but at least they’re working hard.
Bruins lost the Debrusk goal similar to that where Jake’s stick was down on ice and the puck glanced off his glove finger.
I remember, and I thought it was a bullshit rule then too. Not commenting on having different calls, just the fact that it's an option is dumb
Here's the goal the Bruins lost (Game 6 to the Panthers, Bruins up 3-2 in the series) to something similar, yet different.

Nevermind that had Forsling not interfered with DeBrusk, his hand never would have touched the puck - but you know what. I'm not getting angry over that series again.
I know people don't want to hear it, and again I think it's a dumb rule, but there was more to call on Jake than the one tonight
Haha I take that back that was less than the Marchand uncalled trip at the blue line.
Literally involved DeBrusk the last time, too.
Edit: I’m way behind. Amply covered.
There was nothing there either time, especially given the specific language of the rule itself.
Again, not arguing the rule, but tonight a slapper just hit a guy in front, happened to be his hand. I could 100% see in the moment Jake "accidentally" extending his fingers while grabbing the stick and just so happens to hit the puck. Again, not saying that's what happened, but it's completely possible which would be a violation. I'm sure that's what they "saw"
The best thing that this organization could do would be to do whatever it takes to get Greg Campbell out of Florida. Fuck I’d make him GM. Because as long as Colie is running the officiating, that’s the only way we’ll get a fair shake.
Do we set the over/under of do we see 2025 before we see the nhl contradict this interpretation or do we set it at we have to wait till the playoffs?
I know the two different actions. There’s no universe in which DeBrusk “directed” the pick to his teammate or “allowed” his teammates to gain an advantage in the playoffs. Not did he bat it in the air to do so, or push it along the ice to do so. It was nonsense, and called in a strict liability “it touched his hand” sense, with none of the necessary intent. Intent was similarly lacking tonight.
I'll give it a month haha. Certainly know there is no consistency in calling a lot of this stuff
I agree, but I think you're under selling the shit that happens on ice in the moment. You don't understand some of the insane shit I've done in net to make a save. Again, Jake more likely than not did not do it on purpose, but he made a motion that could be viewed as such, and the league probably wanted to set a hard standard in that situation so there can be no grey area discussion like we are having.
I also don't want Nap to ban me for rehashing this shit haha
I’m not underselling anything, and the league literally didn’t set a hard, no gray area standard, given what we just saw in this game.
I mean, if your point is, “Yeah, they invented some shit on a pretext,” then I’m with you, I guess.
The rule is written as a judgment call. It was enforced incorrectly in one instance as a non-judgment call, and in this one correctly, as a judgment call.
