ECQF Game 5: Florida Panthers @ Toronto Maple Leafs | 7PM ET | TNT, CBC, SN, TVAS

[Summer Rose]

That was an eventful period.

My baseball team went 86 years without winning a championship. I feel ya leafs fans. Especially when you consider there will be teams in Houston, Atlanta, Quebec and if I had it my way....Hartford in the next 10 years. Odds will be even tougher.....

 

[EdJovanovski]

I wouldnt be surprised if when the Leafs lose, Dubas climbs over the glass and starts trying to fight Panther players

 

[Dr Pepper]

Like I said previously they blew the whistle because Rielly started Celebrating like he scored

Same thing happened last night though.

Hintz scored, celebrated, but the refs didn't see it so play continued another 10-15 seconds until the league called in and stopped play.

That one involved a loose puck though, this one was buried under Bob's pad.

 

[Vergil]

Still can't believe Tampa let Verhaeghe go. He's such a stud now. Really love Duclair's game too.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

What intent to blow the whistle? The whistle was blown and it was because Rielly was celebrating. The only reason the puck even went in was because the whistle was blown and Bobrovsky got up

Why are you assuming I was talking about this play? I was speaking in general.

 

[kwichang]

Leafs will tie this game as long as Morgan Reilly plays 18 minutes of the next 20...

They'll prob tie it if Panthers keep turtling so badly too

Or the ref

 

[vaspa]

Leafs are getting jobbed

How about getting a primary assist from refs shin pad in a 2-1 win in a elimination game!

Some you win some you lose.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Maybe if the leafs players didn’t stop playing to celebrate a goal the play would have continued.

Again, was talking in general, calm down.

 

[Lorenzo1000]

sounds like a terrible reason to blow the whistle

The ref blew the whistle because he lost sight of the puck.

My dad keeps talking about how good looking Dubas is and Id have to agree, especially if he did that

 

[DistantThunderRep]

LOL f***ing sportsnet... WAS THERE EVER A WHISTLE?!?!?! f***ing joke

 

[NeelyWasAWarrior]

I wouldnt be surprised if when the Leafs lose, Dubas climbs over the glass and starts trying to fight Panther players

He knows better. I think...

 

[Do Make Say Think]

The SportsNet talking heads are desperate

 

[McFlyingV]

Yes you can from the replays from in front of the net that the puck was actually stuck under his right goal pad. The puck only moved back towards the goal after Bobrovsky got up after the play was whistled dead.

You can see it stuck under the pad. You can also see its well above skate level where its stuck. You can see the skate fully over the line, but not much more than that. Again, how can you see how if there is white ice between the puck and the line? If anything when Bobrovsky lifts the pad and the puck slides into the net, you can see it wasn't over the line prior to him lifting it. What you can't see is if Bob moved his pad forward before that moment when we can finally see the puck.

 

[jungles]

Why are they going on and on about whistles?

 

[HTFN]

Same thing happened last night though.

Hintz scored, celebrated, but the refs didn't see it so play continued another 10-15 seconds until the league called in and stopped play.

That one involved a loose puck though, this one was buried under Bob's pad.

So it sounds like you already figured out what the difference is. If the goalie is freezing it because he's not sure there's no good reason not to blow the whistle and review it.

Congrats on figuring out the whole thing, I guess.

 

[Felonious Python]

Is it a reasonable thought to figure that Bobrovsky would stand up during live play when he's got a puck in his pads?

 

[GQS]

Sportnet has the replay with sound on full and there's no whistle heard whatsoever. Sucks that it didn't count though.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Whatever happened to the intent to blow bullshit? Oh, I guess that doesn't matter anymore huh?

 

[IceManCat]

I didnt hear a whistle I also dont know what that means

 

[Pablo El Perro]

It took you that post to realize the Leafs are cursed ? They've been cursed for 56 years

Pajama Boy Karma, Trocheck was tripped, and so was Smith on the same playm

 

[Fledgemyhedge]

tired of seeing the hipster gm

 

[Ducer]
