I don’t know yet what I’m going to be able to say about this game. I’ll have something after work today (Tuesday).

For now, try not to think how close they came.

Hopefully your post says something about the Interference (sp?) calls on Cleary and Zetterberg.

Those were 2 very shotty calls that took momentum from Detroit. If you’re going to call a penalty in OT in the Stanley Cup Finals, it shouldn’t be these crappy penalties. But if you do call them, make sure it goes both ways.

F that, Don’t call stupid penalties, especially when the Cup is on the line.

Much agree with Tim; let’s not forget the first period call on Datsyuk as well–what the heck was that? Here was a good darned hockey play, the Pen blows a tire while getting schooled by Pavel, and the ref who blows the whistle is a billion miles away from the play. Unless he’s got access to the Hubble telescope, put that whistle away, bud. I believe that was also the situation with the Zetterberg OT interfence call. The zebras might as well be calling the game from a mountain in China when they’re making up phantom penalties behind the net from the opposite blue line. Sheepies.
