Can we please just have a broadcast crew that actually watches the games and doesn’t just make shit up. On that 2nd Sharks goal Willy says “No one knows where the puck is” as the ref is signaling it’s a goal. It’s hard to watch bad hockey, but it’s almost impossible to watch bad hockey badly reported.
 
Well. It's time for some WINNER PIE!!! I told Clean Gene during the first intermission that tonight was working on those pecan pinwheels you used to get 8/50 cents, ha! Boys apparently didn't like that scenario. Marchessault and Blankenberg you get first slices but everyone gets whipped cream because that was quite a game. Yeah, Juuse too.

Go Preds!

@vipera1960 I was in the arena and if I hadn't seen the light go off I wouldn't have known it was a goal. It was a few seconds before the Sharks players celebrated and they were delayed in putting the goal on the scoreboard. I think in this one case Willy might have been right.

All he had to do was look at the ref. As a broadcaster with 20+ years experience he should be looking for signals from the official.



And this is actually the thing I find most frustrating about Willy. If this was a baseball or basketball or football play and he didn’t know what happened, he would immediately look to the officials (and what signals they made) to see what the ruling “on the field” (or “on the court”) was going to be. When it comes to hockey though, he just throws his hands up and says “no one knows.”
