I find it funny that anyone would call it a dumb decision to challenge the goaltender interference...as if they have any idea what the final decision will be.:laugh:

The ONLY consistent thing with NHL officiating is that there is NO consistent standard.
Yeah. you gotta try for the challenge there. Coulda got it. The other consideration is the Seattle PP being a 2 minute advantage for the Oilers. Yes, thats how bad the Kraken PP is. Its not its a gamble taking one against this club.
 
McDavid has 2 clear open looks at the net in this period and just skated it into the corner and behind the net. Don't know why he's Shawn Horcoffing himself nowadays
On another play he has an open look on net close in but its so important to feed it across to Hyman through two defenders. Which of course didn't work.

Connor McDavid 20G this season. Not great.

IF he's healthy he needs to really look himself in the mirror and ask himself why he looks off shots when he has one of the most accurate shots in the league,

Connor Brown on glue that period. Worst play bringing it up high and then losing the puck causing first Seattle goal. Then the 5 on 3 penalty on a mind numbingly dumb hook. Making a strong argument Skinner maybe should be in the game. Yeah I know Brown shot the puck for the Janmark goal but what newb plays for a veteran.

Seattle have the worst looking NHL PP I've ever seen in my life. Imagine having trouble gaining line and doing bump back passes on a 5 on 3. If I was a coach and saw this shit it would be bag skates. Man theres bad PP's and then theres seattle on a whole other level.

That said the Oilers are playing horrible in that period.
The first goal seemed more like a Kulak issue there, and why not mention that our only goal was created by him shooting a puck off Janmark. I'll say his penalty there was dumb. I do think the Kraken was embellishing but Brown gave the guy an opportunity to dive with his bad gamble. But I don't see any need to put the blame for that period on any one player. Lots of bad plays by lots of players

Kind of hard to blame him for the penalty, that was a pretty soft call considering what they didn't call...

Nah. As a purist you look at the up high turnover. Brown of his own volition, unpressured inexplicably takes the puck up high in Ozone and then loses it on a poor probability play. Brown himself was banging his stick and knowing full well what a blunder that play was. The only reason you have a Connor Brown in the lineup, at all, is to have a player not making precisely the kind of judgement errors he made in that period.

On the penalty you can't go fishing right across both players legs for the puck on far side. All the guy has to do is stumble and thats an automatic call and was so obvious. its dumb all day to do that.
