[evolver115]

4-2

Still a tough mountain to climb

 

[Darkstone42]

What a shot that was.

 

[evolver115]

4-3

Back in this thing now

Unless they rule no goal

 

[Darkstone42]

4-3 now! The third line strikes again!

 

[blindbaby]

High stick.

 

[Darkstone42]

I think that's Geno's goal.

 

[BlueWolfZero]

Carlyle and Bylsma must be very proud of their defensive know how...

 

[Darkstone42]

Yeah, that might come back. But it was close to shoulder-height, and it's only not goal if Malkin's stick was the one that directed it in if it's between the crossbar and the shoulder.

 

[Darkstone42]

I don't think there's enough to overturn this goal.

There we go the pens are right back in it.

All of a sudden, the thread title is very appropriate (lol)

 

[evolver115]

Toronto got a gift there. Yeah, Geno high sticked the puck, but Bernier scored on himself

 

[Darkstone42]

Well, they deemed Malkin knocked the puck in.

 

[BlueWolfZero]

Hmm...dunno about that call

 

[blindbaby]

It's the correct call according to TSN. You can't knock it in off the goalie like that.

No extenuating circumstance must exist when the goalie propels the puck into the net, because that's what happened there.

LOL.....doesn't help the Pens with Bylsmas' love affair with Engelland getting top minutes when he should truly be a scratch.

 

[Darkstone42]

Another silly penalty by the Leafs. Neal wasn't even near the puck, there was no reason to impede him. But they can keep doing that, because it gives the Pens a chance to get back into it.

 

[evolver115]

Can't wave that one off stupid refs

Nice tip by Dion right past Bernier.

4-3
