GDT: Game # 45 - Rangers vs Wild - (Henrik Lundqvist Retirement Ceremony @ 6:30pm) Game @ 8pm EST

[MysticLeviathan]

Strome pushed Talbot's right pad, forcing him to reposition. Impossible to say how much pressure Strome applies. I'd be surprised if he applied enough pressure with a stick to move a 200 pound man off-balance, but. Guess it's the right call.

it doesn’t matter and the video showed it. he stretched his stick out into the pad, clear as day

 

[ReddestRum]

Right call and we're posting the wrong call on the main board like idiots.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Poetic that that bum Ryan Strome caused that one not to count

 

[Paul Padovano]

Refs completely f'd us...scumbags

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

Ryan Strome is too physical for the nu-NHL

 

[TGWL]

We stopped playing for 40 mins. Can't blame that call.

 

[Avery16]

Disappointing.

 

[DialUp]

I don’t feel like that’s the usual definition of pushing the goaltender across the line. I see where Strome’s stick earlier pushes the pad back while he’s going for the puck, making a normal hockey play, but since when is ZERO contact allowed? Typically in this situation it’s like pushing the pad and puck across the line together, not one then the other a few seconds later. Weird call. Regardless, didn’t deserve the win.

You rarely, if ever, see a call like this made in this way. it's always about pushing the puck in the net with the goalie, not like this. Very unique play. Very devastating

 

[Killem Dafoe]

The rational thinker in me realizes what the ref is talking about and kinda understands. The drunk hockey fan in me says BOOO YOU f***S

 

[mrmovies779]

Can't play 1 period a game against good teams and expect to win.Maybe 1 day they will understand that.

 

[Good Intentions]

You don’t make that call. Lost sight of the puck and saw enough “contact” - nonsense call, anyone defending it is full of shit.

 

[Paul Padovano]

How? Where did Talbot have control there? He never did

Maybe someday the org will understand it needs more talent in its forwards corps.

the ref was right. he didn’t conjure anything. unfortunate but the right call was made

 

[wafflepadsave]

Did Hank leave already?

 

[bbny]

Laf was going to score so Strome pushed Talbot in to nullify it.

Definitely. It's just some good old fashion hazing by Strome. He did it relentlessly to Kakko earlier in the year

 

[ReddestRum]

Did Hank leave already?

ROTF

 

[Rangers in 7]

I’ll be honest, you know how often that goes uncalled? Talbot didn’t complain he was floundering like a fish.

That should have been called a goal

 

[MysticLeviathan]

How? Where did Talbot have control there? He never did

because strome shoved his pad which knocked talbot back and gave an opening for the rangers to poke it in

 

[CommaSynapse]

Wasn't a question of control. Strome pushed Talbot and opened up the spot for the puck to trickle in that otherwise would've been closed off. Goaltender interference.

 

[RANGERFAN12508]

Yes. The pads were shoved in but if you watch it again it’s not Stromes stick .

 

[mas0764]

Laf was going to score so Strome pushed Talbot in to nullify it.

I thought it was Laf too but it was actually Zibanejad.

 

[bbny]

Talbot was going down to his stomach anyway. I don't even think the pad push was necessary, but Strome definitely pushed the pad with his stick to "help it".

 

[Dr. Ogrodnick]

If that's goaltender interference, then I believe we are owed the 2014 stanley cup.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

I’ll be honest, you know how often that goes uncalled? Talbot didn’t complain he was floundering like a fish.

That should have been called a goal

and guess what? it would’ve been reviewed and overturned. the video was conclusive.
