how the **** is that overturned? Howard tripped him outside of the crease!

If the refs didn't screw up the rule there, they have to change it, that's ****ing ********. You can't punish Lindberg because Howard tripped him.

Garbage, Detroit always getting calls

They're both Rangers commentators.

No one is denying howard was kicked in the face. The fact is he was kicked in the face because Howard TRIPPED Linberg.

Technically they didn't punish Lindberg because he wasn't assessed a penalty.

They just did.

First hockey game?

So it seems like it's a Joel ward caps rangers game 5 situation where ward makes contact with the king outside the paint and it's no goal? At least they are consistent

 

[Flipper Anderson]

howard trips him OUTSIDE the crease. Thats a good goal.

Won't lie, i'm not fully up to speed on these exact goalie situations. But it's not like Howard blantly stuck his stick out and tripped Miller. Howard was in his position from the scrum, prior Ranger shot attempt, and Miller's foot came up and hit howard as he was in the crease.

Seemed like the right call. I'm a Ranger fan.

Edit: Lindberg, not Miller.

The thing is the play was challenged. It's one thing if the ref makes a bad call on the ice, ti's another if they can review it in slow motion from multiple angles and still make a bad call.

I just think the refs either don't know the rules or the rules are badly written. From a logic sense, that should've been a goal.

Anybody remember when the Rangers and Kings played in the SC finals? Yea look how different that series could have been.

2123rd

Is this commentator a moron? That was clearly Goalie Interference.

On what planet? Howard tripped a guy outside of the crease. That's the opposite of goalie interference. Frankly, it should've been tripping on Howard.

Look at the play, he blatantly stuck out the stick and it ended up tripping Lindberg.

 

[Club]

Ty Jo!

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

Tim Donaghy switched sports. Good for him.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

That goal should not have been called back.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Nice phantom elbowing call on Girardi following the phantom interference call on Yandle a bit ago.

 

[SlapshotTheMovie]

That goal should not have been called back.

Don't use logic. Goalies are allowed to trip players outside the crease. DUH

 

[Hunter Gathers]

That goal should not have been called back.

Pretty outrageously poor job by the refs on that one.

Howard got away with one.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Howard got away with one.

Not just a tripping penalty but somehow negating a goal with a trip, too.

 

[Devonator]

5 - 1 Ducks over the Flames....it has to be said....Clearly the Flames are no good!!

 

[Flipper Anderson]

Howard got away with one.

I still don't see it as Howard intentionally tripping Lindberg. I see Howard holding the butt of his stick scrambling to get into position in the crease.

Again, I don't know full rules of situation, so I'll leave it at that. Go Rangers

 

[Jaraco]

Howard having quite the game.

 

[X8oD]

Howards best game of the year, best save of the year right there
