The Panthers are a better team in every way. If it wasn't for Swayman they wouldn't even got passed Toronto. Outshot badly in both series. Fn terrible. 😡
The Bruins have been a "quality over quantity" team all year.
1000% agree last nite shouldve been 7-2 if wasnt for swayman. That bein said the officiatin has been questionable all series. Startn with the maroon misconduct in gm 1. Def has favored florida. But florida is the better team ahd deserves to move on
@@scottw92981 Tampa had double the power plays as Florida in the first round they overcame that. That's what really good teams do. They also overcame playing with one of their star players missed four games That's what good teams do. Good teams don't Have meltdowns.
@@scottw92981 The officiating is terrible across the league not just this series. It’s the NHLs fault they write rules so badly that it always turns into a “well the ref at the time felt” issue more than almost every other sport.
Yes but you don't go from the second most penalized team in hockey to the least in one series. You probably believe Biden got 82 million votes too
42 to 18 in shots and only two shots in the 3rd period? Plus letting Barkov waltz through the heart of the defense for a goal? Yeah, Bruins have to do a lot better for people to even start entertaining whether the series is rigged.
Dude, they were on the PK all period since bennetts missed call, how are you gonna get shots on net 4 on 5?
They were on the pk because they hit tkachuk on an interference that made him bleed and skated backwards into Bobrovsky because they couldn’t handle going down 3-2. Stop blaming the refs when you’re outshot 42-18
@@Dyljm What do them commiting penalties have to do with that call? They hit Tkachuk, they ran over Bob, it's what gets you in the box.
Thanks for having some common sense rather than let your emotions take over. Boston fans your team is simply not performing. You can get mad at the Panthers and refs all you want but it wont change YOU. Repsect for Swaymen even thou he taunted the panthers. Boston meet Karma.
Why are people pretending like SOG is the only thing that matters? Yes Florida outshot Boston yet it was still a tie game into the 3rd, making bad calls even more impactful.
Listen. I know the tying goal was extremely controversial but the bruins absolutely cannot follow that up with only 2 shots the entire third period during a crucial playoff game on home ice. There was lots more hockey left to play and they just laid down and died
They can’t, but again that goal changes the whole game and quite literally the whole series. Bruins fault for coming out flat and sucking but they could’ve stole that game had the refs done their job.
this...
I agree, they didn't rise to the occasion and finish out the game strong.
This is fair, but the call absolutely served as the reason why the bruins finished the game the way they did. To say the bruins would have still had those 3 additional penalties called against them and that they would have still only had 2 sog had the right call been made is simply untrue. Let the game sort itself out on its own and make the right call.
It's just funny to me that the superior teams can overcome bad Calls can overcome one of their stars Not. Playing Can regain momentum Don't melt down because things aren't going their way. Make the other team play There game You do remember when you had that team?It's definitely not this one.Everything has to go right or you're not winning
Cant blame the refs for 2 shots in the third
Stop deflecting. Refs couldn’t do their job. Bruins to blame as well, but stop ignoring the refs fault. They get paid good money to do their job. Do it correctly
Actually, you kind of can. 4 straight power plays kills any offensive momentum while forcing you to defend
@@internal2896could say the same about the bruins. Outplayed consistantly
I always see comments like this and just can't understand it. How does the Bruins inability to put shots on net have anything to do with this god awful reffing. The refs gave them the win here in what should've been a 2-2 game headed to OT. The Bruins scored 2 goals on 5 shots in the first. Who says they don't get a rush and score early? Bruins could've stolen this game for sure.
Yes you can when you're short-handed all period
Bruins were outplayed the last 2 periods. I think they just ran out of gas.
I dont think the bruins have ever won a game in which they went up 2-0. I actually turned the game off as soon as they did. They always seem to blow that lead. I had zero expectations for this team anyway. They'll be better next year when they can get some players who actually contribute on the roster, instead of having to fill out the roster with scrap heap guys who are a net negative like geekie and brown. First order of business is getting a first line center, and preferably a guy who can change the culture. They don't have the balls on this team to make a cup run, they're too weak minded.
It could have been me that wrote this
Honestly Swayman is the reason Boston is here at all. Across all the postseason games this year Boston has only outshot its opponent 2 games out of 11 (Game 3 and Game 7 against the Leafs). In the 7 against Tor the shots were 215 to 193. Boston shot 22 less times but because the Leafs are trash at scoring and Swayman was a wall - they survived. Against the Panthers - through 5 its 116 to 79. That's a 37 shot deficit. Swayman has on a shot per goal allowed basis outperformed Bob - but the Panthers have vastly outperformed the rest of the Bruins - and with such an onslaught its just too much.
Many Canadians are Bs fans . Everyone regards the Bs as a great organization. However Florida has their number just like the Bs had the Leafs . The goals against is a stat over seven games stands out . Florida could go to the finals. All the best !
@@malcolmclayton6651 The Leafs fans certainly have it rough. Since 1967 the organization seems to have focused more on getting to the playoffs rather than what to do once there. And more often than not it has been the Bruins as the architect of that agony. As a Panthers fan I can only wish to be a good enough team to be someone’s boogeyman for 57 years lol.
@@bamnet2k As a small country Canada compared to the USA the focus must also be on the big picture . The bombing of the Boston Marathon did not sit well in the land of forests and lakes .Take care .
“Is the series rigged?” As a panthers fan hearing those words. Bad/unfair/no calls by the ref. Brings to mind a certain playoff series from 2016. Panthers vs Islanders First Round game 6 double OT. As well as the previous Battle of Florida playoff series. Calls weren’t going our way the first two times the Panthers played the Lightning in the post season.
How come it's? Never Rigged. If your team wins ?
Honestly I believe the league knows the fans in Boston will line up for their $20 beers and hotdogs no matter how many times they blow it in the playoffs. They would probably have more to gain in the longterm by making hockey more popular in southern markets, so it’s not outside the realm of possibility lol
Trocheck was tripped
Do you realize how stupid it is to cry "rigged" when you get outshot 42-18?
So you are swayman cucked your team. Needed zebra help.
@@generationxpvp what's his GAA in this series again?
@@eyesofnightwhat's his SV%
So you just go by shots? Don't factor in quality shots, blocked shots, and power plays. Question comes from allowing that goal when ref was right there, could've called cross check, interference, or goalie interference. Bennett with 2 hands on his stick cross checks Coyle into the goalie knocking both Coyle and Swayman down and immediately scores. No way that goal should count, announcers said the same thing except for Bissonette. How about consistency? Geekie gets called for goalie interference backing into Bobrovsky who goes down like he was shot with a .45 Really not much of a collision. All this after a game where Bennett clearly punches Marchand in the head on his reverse hit knocking him out of this game with upper body injury which most likely means concussion. I defended the Bennett reverse hit until I saw the other angle, NHL has the angle I saw where it is very clear. The Bennett goal and punch to Marchand are inexcusable non-calls. Not talking about refs missing calls, both are reviewed. At very least, NHL has an integrity problem.
😂
That Bennett goal was Toronto getting back at the bruins for all the painful memories.. that was not a goal but I’ll take it
Pretty much 😂
It was a goal, in that Bennet scored it and there was no chance for Swayman to defend his shot. Coyle could have defended the pass, or prevented the puck from getting to him. But that's not what Boston challenged. And hey, we can look at the rule book and everyone can say "that's not goalie interference" while denying that NHL refs have always called it as "does this IMPEDE Swayman from making that save". Nope. It doesn't. He was down and out with literally zero chance whatsoever of stopping Bennett HIMSELF. Coyle MAYBE could have defended it, but that's just not what Boston challenged.
Swayman is the only reason the box scores look close. One team is much better.
You know, I honestly feel for you guys because we’ve been on that side where it seems like the calls are always against us. I don’t agree with the ekblad call, the Bennett gpa was not good. But, it is nice to not see the whole discredit go one way, every team has their dirty cheap plays. The boys are hungry, and yea I think Toronto hates you guys because we are never on this side of these calls, I have been shocked by a lot of these goaltender interference calls, but that’s Toronto not the officials on the ice. Good episode man, I understand the pain.
You have restored my faith in humanity, and dispelled my current feeling about Bruins fans.
Don't expect to win a series when you're getting badly out-shot in every game.
Bruins get called for goaltender interference , clearly being pushed in by Florida Player. Bruins get pushed into Swayman by Florida player , NO INTERFERENCE CALLED ! WTF is going on with the officiating !! Not just this series either , league has to take along look at the consistency of officiating . It can become a slugfest QUICK when players feel they need to cover each others asses !
Florida is a better team this year vs last, but Boston is not a better team vs last year. Florida also looks like they want the win more, and willing to sacrifice more, and willing to play loose. Bruins looked great during the regular season. Florida playing their Jedi mind tricks...
Well said Buddy...Brutal honesty from a Bruin fan !!
My guess as to why they called it a goal is either because they believed that hit wasn't hard enough to cause that fall or they believed that the goal wouldn't of been effected if the cross check didn't happen. That's my best guess. People were mad at the refs during the second Rangers game, that gave them a power play over a small crosscheck kinda like that (only he had the puck)
And I bet the didn't suspend Bennett because he never did a full upper cut to knock him out completely. Man I didn't think I could be more disgusted with the nhl. Not a real sport. WWE is better scripted though
The Bennet goal was rough to take, I'll give you that. But we gotta get more shots, more pressure, more chances and LESS penalties. Go BRUINS.
hard to win w 2 SOG in p3 :/
Really doesn’t help when they can’t make a call. Could’ve stole that game and got lucky. But stop trying to look past the refs
@@internal2896 I mean true but also you would hope your team can respond to that
@@internal2896 So you're counting on luck?
@@eberkovichso you are counting on refs rigging games?
@@CowboyUp1371 I am counting on Panthers directing over 40 shots on everyone they face. Swayman is the only reason this game's scoreline does not look like the scorelines of the two previous games.
Toronto screwing over Boston. Now if only they could do it during a playoff series
SOG does not win games... so I believe the Bs can win even with low # shots. That officiating is either blind/ignorant, or they are following their marching orders by making the Panther path to the next round easier (they are corrupted by sports betting?), either way, it is NOT acceptable.
If you read the official situation room ruling on the goal, and then look at the play in slow motion, you can see that Coyle falls from the crosscheck, attempts to get up, but fails to get his footing and slips back onto Swayman as Bennett is scoring. Their official take on the incident is that Coyle's contact with Swayman after he gets up and slips back down is not a result of Bennett's crosscheck. I am a panthers fan, so yeah I don't mind that it benefits me, but in general I don't think it should be called that way, however I do think if it had been ruled a no goal on the ice it'd have stayed a no goal, if that makes sense. Also, outside of that, the Bruins just had no fight in them in the third, and did nothing to try and fix their situation. You can't win playoff hockey only playing 30 minutes.
I agree and disagree. The bruins have had some HORRIFIC efforts in these playoffs, but it’s genuinely very hard to build momentum and get shots when you’re constantly on the PK from, let’s face it, some pretty soft calls. The bruins didn’t deserve to win, but they still could’ve won. Just a shame it came down to shitty officiating
You do realize cross checking in itself is a penalty? Not too mention goaltender interference. So the second the Panthers touched the puck it should have been ruled dead for a power play because of the cross checking alone.
Don't try to reason with these idiots, you may as well be trying to explain calculus to a caveman
@@arnavshah8131Florida had 6 power plays, Boston had 4. Not a big difference there. 2 shots on goal in a third period of a game that’s fairly important is unacceptable, bad reffing or not. They got two power plays in the final five minutes (one was with 36 seconds left, but that’s still 36 seconds of 6 on 4). So the officiating gave them a chance. Yet they only maybe got one shot in that time (can’t remember when their two shots occurred in the period). They had 8 shots across two periods of the game before as well. This is a problem for the Bruins and blaming the refs doesn’t fix that.
@@CowboyUp1371that would be the softest crosscheck ever called in the playoffs
Bruins need to ask Gretzky what to do, afterall "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take"
Hard to watch the playoffs and not think the NHL is learning from the NFL.
Youre right dude. The refs are brutal but we sometimes flat out refuse to shoot the puck, nevermind it being contested but with an open shooting lane....nevermind losing battles
Too much wine in Bastan wadder.
I’m a panthers fan and I agree the call was inexcusable. That said the bruins did not play well
I'm an Islanders fan, so no bias opinion here either way. That tying goal should have been disallowed and Bennett should have gotten a penalty instead, so that play was huge and could have changed the outcome for sure. I think Florida is the better team, even with Marchand in the lineup, but anything can happen due to key injuries, hot goaltending or bad calls, so good luck to the Bruins in trying to return the favor of coming back from a 3-1 deficit.
Now you know how the Lightning feel with four goals called back for goalie interference
The league said this series will be highly scrutinized. They forgot to mention is would only be one team under the radar
Nearly 45 minutes without a goal after just two in the first didn’t help.
This is an ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS after all..OUPS cat is out of the bag
Nothing says you're a loser quicker than blaming the The refs Okay, Mr. Trump. If you lose, it's rigged if you win it's legit, LOL grow some ball.
Players are millionaires, win or LOSE. $$$ trumps old time hockey every day.
So no team can just win, right? It has to be rigged if your team don't win. I'm pretty sure there have been horrible calls on the team that has won but you dont hear about Them because the teams good enough to overcome that
Bruins have been outshot 107-50 these last 3 games.
Hard to get shooting chances when you’re always on the penalty kill
@@rask-o Panthers outshot the Lightning in Game 3 31-29 being 0/0 on the PP and having 4 called against them. Sounds like an excuse.
Boston fans have more excuses than Mother goose has fairy tales.
I bet you’re the type of people who don’t care about the calls being right, you’re just happy about bruins fans being pissed. Absolute clowns.
@@rask-o nice strawman you poor victim.
World Wide Hockey
Even as a Panthers fan, I don't understand how that wasn't goalie interference on Bennett. The officiating has just been bad in the playoffs
Panthers just look like a better team across the board. Better on offense, better goal keeper, more aggressive, better defense. Outshooting them 42-18 is insane.
It it was rigged the Bruins are in on the rigging only taking 2 shots in the 3rd and 0 in the final 14 minutes. If you wanna win hockey games show up to all 3 periods. If your team refuses to sy a full 60 minutrs every game you can't cry they lost because of bad refs. They were outplayed, outworked and outcoached.
Sounds like sour grapes when your team is being outshot 42-18
I’m not sure how much talent Bruins will be able to bring in the offseason. But team chemistry counts for a lot in the playoffs and there has been a lot of roster turnover the last few years. So I have a hard time believing adding a couple of free agents is gonna translate into deep playoff runs. You gotta knock on the door a few years in a row with almost the same group of guys to get far.
The low number of shots on goal for the Bruins speaks volumes in this series. But the low number of shot attempts by the Bruins is baffling.
I think the panthers got a free goal with the Bennett play. But in game 4 last year, the bruins got a similarly ridiculous goal awarded to them after a whistle so I’m not losing a ton of sleep over it
Of course! When the league can prevent a ratings bonanza ECF matchup between New York and Boston, that’s exactly what they’re gonna do. Business 101!
Habs fan here. I never thought I'd defend Boston, of all teams, but there is something clearly wrong with the officiating. How Bennett gets away with so much, I'll never understand. How did he not get suspended for punching Marchant in the face like he did??!!!
Boston in the 3rd period had 0 shots on net in the last 14 minutes with a 6on4 😂
They had six on 4 for 14 minutes did they. That must be a record
Panthers and rangers are definitely on another level right now.bruins just don’t have enough fire power.coming from someone who is a pure hockey fan with no horse in the race .my flyers have been out of it for 15 years.i love hockey .i picked the panthers to win it this year ,but watching the rangers throughout the playoffs they are going to be a really tough team to beat..its unfair how much is on that team
The refs or league need to rig anything, Florida is just an all around better team and the idea of any fans of the Bruins calling another team dirty is fucking hilarious
Just as bad as my Rangers collapse. Smh. Was hoping for a Bruins Rangers ECF
What would have been had that Sam Bennett goal not counted? Clear violation of rule 😂. The Bruins were playing well till that point. The total shots would have been less alarming had the Bruins won.
It’s bad when even the ESPN pre-game panel states Florida is just a better team….. so there’s that.
Easiest way to lose? Expect the Refs to be perfect.
I expect them to be consistent not perfect. If they call Lauko for goalie interference last game then they damn well better call Bennet here. I understand the nocall on the marchand sucker punch. But this one was BRUTAL
@@twostraightdads526 I get what you are saying, but at the end of the day can you rely on anyone but You and Yours?
Could you explain me the motivation behind the league wanting Boston to lose ? I mwan what is the profit
Glad to see that the leafs complaints are now being duplicated in Boston.
Panthers are a better team, but that doesnt excuse the refs not making these calls. it is like the high stick by Washington Captical's player Nicolas Aube-Kubel that broke Red Wings forward Andrew Copp’s cheek bone. NO CALL. I believe this was the same game where the refts did not call the trip at the blue line which immediately resulted in a Caps goal. 2-1 loss to Washington. Both of these penalties happened right in front of multiple Refs and they just refused to call it.
Panthers have had more than double the power plays as the bruins have That alone confirms the league is trying to make the panthers win That never happens in a playoff series The shot difference doesn’t sound as bad when you realize that the bruins have spent almost a full period every game on the penalty kill
Mad respect to you for telling it as its being played out in front of our eyes. Crazy all the crap that is coming out from Bruins fans. From a pure hockey perspective, this series is not close. The Panthers are the best team in the 5on5, and it shows. They have completed dominated the Bruins, after they shook off the rust from Game 1. Have to give the Bruins credit for their effort, especially Swayman. The extra curricular activity, yeah, its a bit much, considering who plays for the Bruins. As a Panthers fan, I can live without the Bennett punch to Marchand, but could care less about the other shit. The Bruins fell into the Panthers trap, and kept taking dumb penalties. Panthers stayed calm and cool, and let the Bruins self destruct.
We can’t win a game registering two shots on goal in the 3rd period but that 100% was a cross check on Charlie Coyle and that was 100% goaltender interference on Swayman.
In our conversations, what you've said is more glaring than ever. This is why they need a superstar 1st line center...
the calls in this series are horribily slanted. As a Bruins fan I recognize that the Panthers are built better for the post season. However the league let Florida operate this style of play last year too for whatever reason (Bennet's punch for ex) Then they got absolutely crushed in the finals because it's ultimately not how they want teams to play on their biggest stage. It doesn't make sense.
Bruins didn't get a shot in the last 14 minutes. Without Swayman stealing it, the Bruins would have been down 5-0. Crazy thing though? The NHL's interpretation on ice is "does this IMPEDE Swayman from making that save?" And a level headed person HAS TO say no. He was balls on the ground, toes splayed out with TWO FEET between his right foot and the post. If Boston had ANY sense, they would have called a timeout. Looked at the replay. Seen Swayman was NOT going to make the save, and instead challenged that COYLE was interfered with. The second Bennett touches the puck to score, the play gets blown down and Boston gets a PP. But the SECOND you look for goalie interference, you can ONLY look goalie interference. And, again, if we're being honest.. even without Coyle being pushed into him, Swayman isn't stopping that. The only thing that CAN be argued from the play is MAYBE Bennett interferes with Coyle defending the pass.
Between Toronto allowing the Bennett goal but reversing that goal from Tampa it's hard to say Toronto isnt biased
It was pretty evident going in to the series that neither Boston nor Toronto could match the talent on the Panthers team, The league should have disallowed the goal for its own credibility if nothing else… Going to be interesting to see how the Rangers fans handle this kind a crap in the next round 😂
First off. Shots on goal is an irrelevant stat when Vancouver won last night with half as many shots on goal as Edmonton. Scoring chances is the stat you need to be looking at and they are very close between the bruins and panthers. How the hell are you supposed to generate offense when Florida is man up for 14 minutes of a 20 minute period? Second of all I hate this notion of “well bruins are only in it cause of swayman” is he not a part of the team? Is he not a player on the ice you also need to beat? Does 2011 not count because Tim Thomas had some of the best goaltending the league has ever seen? No, it still counts. The goalie is another player you have to beat and it clear the only way Florida can beat him is with free power play goals and by literally keeping him from moving. Bruins got fucking robbed game 3 and game 4 it doesn’t matter who’s playing better it matters who wins and when you can only win when you are given 10 power plays a game that tells me you aren’t the better team.
Panthers have been the better team but the officiating has been awful. How the referee did not make the interference or crosscheck call is just awful as all year that kind of stuff has been called. Then for Toronto to let it stand is mind-blowing.
As a life long, die hard, Bruins fan....I agree with you. Florida is just simply better. Bad call or not...
with the exception of game one when Florida hadn't played for a week. They've dominated most of the periods giving Boston signal digit shots on goal. And physically pushing them around. Something Boston is not used to. Florida is the high bar of the east . Expect to see them in the finals again
Nahhh, even if Bennet didn’t hit Coyle, Coyle woulda still been impeding Swayman’s movement.
Maybe the bruins are seeing how much fun the leafs are having golfing and they don’t want to move forward?
Let’s put it this way. Imagine instead of Bennet, it was Bunting doing the exact same thing, and he still had a Leaf uniform. 😅. No way does that goal get counted. 😂
What the Bruins are to the Leafs, the Panthers are to the Bruins.
SoFlo in the house. Why does it seem that the players are trying to play us dirty?
End of the day officiating needs to be better, but the Bruins only star is Swayman, without him the it would look like an NFL scoreboard. Cant win a series getting outshot 40-18 every game
Even in rule book the contact was after a rebound, goalie was in no way going to get back in time, flat on his butt, no way to push off... And Boston fans screaming about cheapshots is laughable
Even if the Bennet goal didnt count, panthers were outplaying them HARD.
As BS as the goal was the Bruins had absolutely no business winning that game. They quit. 2 shots in the third shows that the team has no fight and no pride.
Coyle went into the crease himself and was pushed into but Swayman was never going to make a save on that play. Panthers are just better team.
Why does Boston choose to only take 15 shots per game when they are so capable of winning? The zebras probably forced them to never shoot the puck 😅
One good thing is that gives bruins fans something fo work with, if the refs were good but boston was playing that bad, ut would be even harder to swallow
Officiating is rough (though I do give NHL refs more of a break as the game is fast paced and they are only human after all.) I thin goalie interference needs to be reworked that makes it way more clear what is interference and what is not. As for the tying goal I thought the reason it was a no call was because the Bruins player was already in the blue zone when the cross check occurred. But I find the penalty is confusing. I can respect your type of Bruins fan (which very likely the majority as its always the noisy minority that gets all the attention.) But the ones crying about the officiating I don't respect it. The Florida panthers have outshot the Bruins 144-79 this series so far (that's a 65 shot difference) and that shows that the Bruins are just completely outmatched here. I do think the break the panthers had compared to the busy schedule of the Bruins is playing a factor in it. As for the cheap shots, both teams are very physical and get their shots in (whether cheap or late or clean) and for either fanbase to complain about that is just hypocritical (this does not include missed penalty calls as I understand why they would complain about that.) (I am also not saying that you are making those complaints.) Swayman is getting no defensive help and I really think if he just had that help the Bruins would not look so outplayed like they have been the last 3 games.
Why didn't the Bruins pull the goalie after they got behind in the 3rd?
Panthers are a better team what the Bruins SHOULD be. I think that the Bruins haven't "shown up" in the playoffs (except for both Game Ones). Remember that this was SUPPOSED to be a "rebuilding series". We got this far on Swayman.
The better team won. The correct call was made on the 2-2 goal. Coyle was already in the cease & he got barely hit. He's already in the way.
Ah yes. Cause nothing says NHL ratings like, *checks notes* Florida Panther games
You can tell people have absolutely no arguments for this no call because all their arguments are "Boston was outplayed"... Reminder: this game ended 3-2. That goal that shouldn't have been was a MAJOR event in this game. It literally could've been the tipping point between a win and a loss. But we will never know the real outcome because there was no call on that obvious goalie interference. And I am a Habs fan! 😅
I am a die hard Panthers fan, bro really your Bruins can not compete with my Panthers, we out play you out classed your Bruins are a pee wee hockey team compared to my Panthers, its over see you next year we will take it yes take it in game 5 in front of Miami/Ft Lauderdale fans.
6-1 Game 2, 6-2 Game 3, plays like shit most of game 4, 42-18 shots in favour of Florida, and the Panthers get a sus call and all of a sudden the NHL is rigged? Swayman is the only reason the Bruins haven't been eliminated, even in the first round against the Leafs.
Panthers fan here and that should've been disallowed, but you got outplayed.
Panthers fan here reppin from JAX. There’s a reason there’s a situation room and they did call them- same would’ve happened in Boston made that same play on us
I thought you gave a very fair accurate summary of the series so far. the 3rd period was a disappointment for the Bruins.
There has always been controversial calls, but over the last 10 years you'd have to be pretty stupid to thing that pro sports isn't rigged
Panthers are the better team. But that call was embarrassing for the league
YES ITS RIGGED AND ITS OBVIOUS
Upon further review it was a light check. Perhaps they were saying that Coyle probably could have stopped his own forward momentum. EDIT: I think Bennett has it right in his call on why he thought it stood. "[I'm] putting that puck in before Swayman's going to be able to get over whether Coyle is on him or not, so I think that's the reason why it stood. And that's how I saw it, as well." And that would be the ONLY way it makes sense to me ... that they determined the end result of the play was going to happen one way or the other. Its squiffy but makes more sense than just shrugging and going... i dunno.
That part isn't in the rules
@@afhostie Yet that is where the NHL is going to be willing to die on this particular hill. They state that “Bennett's shove on Coyle - which resulted in the clash between Coyle and Swayman - "did not prevent Swayman from playing his position in the crease prior to Bennett's goal." so per the rule 69.1 if a defending player has been pushed, shoved or fouled by an attacking player so as to cause the defending player to come into contact with his own goalie, such contact shall be deemed contact initiated by the attacking player - the NHL is basically arguing a gray area of milliseconds. A millisecond later it would be GI. Do I agree, yes technically but also no realistically. But thats what they get for not spelling out exactly what happens and leave gray areas to the refs. Same thing has happened for years in the NFL with what exactly defines a “catch” or a “football move”. It’s stupid. It’s their fault for leaving a window of interpretation open. But there it is.
@@afhostie Yes it is, albeit indirectly. "To prevent Swayman from playing his position" requires that Swayman is able to play his position without the interference. Otherwise the interference didn't actually prevent anything and thus wasn't interference to begin with. The word interference itself also assumes that there's something to be interfered with.
Panthers are your daddy so please show daddy some respect. Daddy loves you no matter how upset you get.
Even if the bruins did not play well that call was beyond horrible it should have been 2 to 2. You cant excuse bad officiating which is there with the other series too. It was the worst hockey call i ever seen.
Disagree on goal/no goal call, otherwise your analysis is spot on…
I believe NHL has major issues with players and teams. Awhile back police in NJ did an investigation. It was called "operation slapshot" It was said there was some connection to the mafia aswell. It was a gambling ring. You know there are two current coaches playing in NHL that got into some trouble over it. Toccett and green oddly enough both coach on Canadian teams. Canada has won nothing in 30 years too..very weird in my opinion. In fairness these two coaches may not have any involvement now but you never know...but I do believe there is an issue in NHL. ESp with the Leafs....oh ironically Green was an x leaf back in the day too. You know the NHL does not seem to safe guard or attempt discourage this..Look at all the grey areas with how games are officiated. I no longer bet on ANY NHL games anymore. Its also a tough pill to swallow if its true. Too much money involed I think...makes people go crazy over the power of $$$$.
Like #bentley5554 states the Peewee Bruins are getting manhandled/outplayed in many ways. Lack of disciple (penalties) Having 6-7 shots a period for the past 3-4 games won't win you games. Not a Swayman issue it's a team issue not playing as they should. From someone that has watched sports many years... Sports are fixed it's easy to see lots of money being put in it (gambled etc..)
"If you were truly the better team, you'd win 9/10." Coming from a Boston fan who's team has favorable officiating almost all the time is CRAZY 🤣. You're just realizing that when you guys aren't the big bad Bruins after running into another dirty team, you aren't much of a team.
nothing better than crying Bruins fans......It melts my heart. Say goodbye for this year..
The series isn't over yet. The Bruins are a great road team.
It’s not, but whatever helps you to sleep at night.
