Game Thread: STANLEY CUP FINAL: Los Angles Kings vs. New York Rangers

[forty_three]

If an attacking player has been pushed, shoved, or fouled by a defending player so as to cause him to come into contact with the goalkeeper, such contact will not be deemed contact initiated by the attacking player for purposes of this rule, provided the attacking player has made a reasonable effort to avoid such contact.

Looking at a non - creatively framed gif, you see King going to the slot, and McDonagh who is not even looking at the play, meet him and push him into Lundquist.

Right call. In real time, King had no opportunity to avoid contact, especially not to the level where he was going to avoid it had McDonagh not interfered with him.

This is what I thought of at the end, and my memories of the old polar bear den at the Detroit Zoo.

Hey Cobie. You've been busy I see. Congrats on blowing through the 10,000 post mark. That is definitely a milestone here on the SportsHoopla. We shall see how things go tonight.

 

[BF4L]

Good luck to both teams fan bases.

I think the Rags take this one tonight but that is the only win.

 

[Retroram52]

Crisp passing by both clubs and fast, non-stop action.

 

[Retroram52]

Man, both teams are flying out there and this first period is whippin by..

 

[David_son]

Its annoying if the refs are going to let things go out there Rangers should take advantage a little but they dont.

 

[Retroram52]

Zuch had a wide open net and missed off the post.

 

[Retroram52]

That was some save by Quick. Outstretched stick and the puck was deflected away from the net.

 

[sherbert1421]

Yup. Hell of a save by quick
