Glad there’s a spotlight on officiating but I think people are overreacting a bit. Bad calls happen in the playoffs, bad major calls happen, bad non calls happen. People saying “the refs won this game” for the Sharks are out the lunch. This wouldn’t even be a conversation unless the sharks scored at least three, let alone FOUR on the ensuing PP. That’s absolutely insane.
It’s partially very clutch play by the sharks, partially a very bad PK, and partially the major. People saying the refs handed the sharks this game are acting like every major is a guaranteed four goal result, which is so far from the truth.
Did the play deserve a major ? Hell no. Did the act of the official assigning the penalty determine the outcome entirely ? Hell no.
