Feel bad for Joonas, he played lights out. 

Milbury - " I'm not sure which goalie played better, I can't decide". How bout the one with 85 saves that blew the old record out of the water, vs 61 saves? Guy is such a doosh.

Aka he hates any team that isn’t Bastin.

Milbury (and others) seem so certain that Hedman did not take a penalty against Atkinson, but I'm not convinced.  Hedman came from behind (Atkinson had a step), swung his stick around, missed the puck and hit Atkinson on the skate.  This caused Atkinson to go down and lose control of the puck.  What am I missing?

I agree with this, and was wondering what everyone else on the broadcast saw. 
 

He didn’t touch the puck, he actually whacked Cams skates instead.

That's a penalty everytime if it's during regulation. There was even a worse non-call on Seth Jones, earlier in the OT's, who was tackled by the head when he was in alone on the goalie.

I missed this. Got a clip of it?

My take was that Hedman had his left glove against his lower back and gave him a push, which is legal, and he lost his balance.

Nada. They didn't even make a big deal of it during the broadcast, but play was going end to end at the time without any whistles. It was pretty blatant to me. I'll look around though.

I didn’t think it was even close to a penalty. And I hate Tampa.

Good no call.

 

Now, the blatant elbow to Gerbe’s head I can’t explain.

This is all I could find. Although Seth Jones called the officiating "suspect" during the OT's.

That was incidental contact. Remember, Gerbe is 4' 3".

Cute. No, the guy was looking right at him and skated into him with his elbow. Completely intentional.

Didn’t see the Seth Jones thing.

More like Gerbe skated into McDonagh. Nathan was sight seeing through center ice. Not intentional. No penalty for an elbow or interference. Won't even be reviewed by player safety I bet.

Yeah. There was a really slomo angle that they showed when it happened that made it look a lot worse.

Both "penalties":

I could see an argument that, despite missing the puck and hitting Atkinson's skate, it didn't seem cause the fall.  Rather, as pastajoe said, it was the push in lower back that pushed him down.  Tough one.

Al Arbour is my Chuck Noll 

Maybe it's cause I'm old, but I'd go Toe Blake for Chuck Noll. I mean I'm a lifelong Steelers fan so Chuck Noll is one of the greatest of all time for me, and Toe Blake, I mean 8 cups, what more can you say.

How do they put Milbury on these broadcasts? He's terrible. Brings nothing to the game and sounds like he's whining about everything

That was a game for the ages yesterday. Seth Jones and Victor Hedman show why we really need Dahlin to mature into solid game controlling d-man. He's got time to do it, let's get it right! 

 

Can Dahlin be as good as them two?

Except we have to listen to Douchebury.

Canes score 13 minutes in on their 2nd shot.  So good and bad news.
