I guess you missed Letang getting his stick chopped out of his hands?

You mean having his own stick SLASHED out of his hands, right in front of the linesman, and then being interfered with by a Lightning player on the back check just 5 seconds after that? But yes, Letang getting 4 out of that makes sense.

He was hauled down. Use your eyes.

For whatever reason, the refs chose to look past that sequence and the clear-as-day too many men. Ridiculous.

Assuming you're talking about the TB player that was halfway off the ice that got hit in the skate:

The NHL Rule Book said:
If in the course of a substitution either the player entering the play or the player retiring is struck by the puck accidentally, the play will not be stopped and no penalty will be called.

Teams have been called for less. Anyways, just seemed like a game where the refs made the rules up as they went along.

Or they 'accepted' you because they aren't people with narrow worldviews. Good lord, that Sportsnet commercial.
