2016 Playoff Thread

Tyler Johnson gets flat out interfered with breaking out of the zone on a 2-on-1. Pens come back and score. Ridiculous.

i have not watched very much of the NHL playoffs but from what I have watched the refs have been brutal

missed calls
phantom calls
early whistles on what should be goals
even some basic icing calls are missed

do not know if it is always this bad or not

It's been pretty typical NHL officiating. Very inconsistent. Every game has phantom calls and blatant misses.. both ways.
 
has it always been this bad?

I haven't found it worse than normal... but maybe I didn't catch a particularly bad game yet.

That missed call on Johnson there wasn't anything that bad. Sure it could have been called but that not getting called in OT is far from abnormal.

Your bias is showing
 
So you're saying that is always called? In the playoffs? In overtime?

I may be glad that it was missed but it doesn't change the fact that I literally said it could have been called and therefore acknowledged that it was a missed call. But there's no arguing that those plays go uncalled all the time... especially in the playoffs and especially in playoff OT.

Well, no call is made 100% of the time, but I expected the arm to go up in that situation given the chance it prevented.
 
When I say it's "not always" called, I just mean that I regularly see that play not called... especially in the playoffs or OT.

If I recall the play correctly the puck was just there like a half second or so before the contact.
