I don't think so.  The call wasn't *****:  A defenseman is never allowed to close his hand on the puck in the crease.  It's a penalty shot.  There's no room for discretion here.

It looked to me that he pushed it to the goalie.  The refs certainly seemed to debate and discuss it for some time.

But in the act of pushing it toward the goalie he closed his hand on the puck.

 

Taylor Fedun has played in 9 home games for the Dallas Stars this year.  He has 2 goals and 7 assists for 9 points in those 9 games.  He just scored in tonight's game.

Well a penalty shot is something you want to get right.  It doesn't mean they were unsure, just that they wanted to confirm that they all saw the same thing.

Dreger already mentioned that the Sabres are not in on any Taylor Hall Trade Talks

Just goes to show how little we all know about what goes on in that locker room.

That’s true, but Eichel and O’Reilly have always insisted that they are friends.

But Paul Hammsammich swore up and down that though Eichel had no issues with O'Reilly, that sentiment wasn't reciprocated.

So, there is that.

After hearing about this dinner Paul will probably write that the Bills are concerned about Josh Allen’s spending habits.

On Monday Night Jack, Samson and Ryan O’Reilly went out to dinner at Hutch’s and apparently Josh Allen was there is well and paid their bill

But, but, but, Ryan O'Reilly HATES Jack Eichel.

And Josh Allen will never be a good quarterback anyway.

Who the #### invited Reinhart.  He should've been serving Skinner.

And why wasn't Bogosian there?

 

Enquiring minds want to know. (Where's the wacko smilie when you need really need it?)

Oh you took most of those thoughts right from my mind haha.

Or maybe it was Jack who hates ROR. ?

Perfectly benign explanations...we've all had people we like personally but can't work with, or it could be a clearing of the air meeting, BUT.... 

The snark opportunity is too much to pass up. We don't know a damn thing about locker rooms and what goes on or what matters in any specific situation, so let's all never talk about it again, shall we? Sigh, a fool's hope, I know.

Kovalchuk placed on waivers for contract termination. Some fine GMing out there in LA. Wonder if Kopitar and Doughty are thinking about requesting trades.

Edmonton has traded Conner McDonald!

Coyotes will now of course win the lottery

That team is gonna be nasty if so.

This was, of course, the real motivation for the deal.

Its mind boggling why they even signed him in the first place.

Darcy Regier could do better than that.  I know the GM won't resign for cash reasons, but do you need more evidence to "go in a different direction."
