f*** these refs and toronto

1000%

 

[GOLFWANG]

 

[PK Cronin]

So many opportunities to break into a playoff spot and they just never can.

 

[Arsenalogist24]

Bad loss but valuable point

Shootout woes and Bridgeport. Things for the offseason

 

[MikeyMike01]

Referees award a point to the disgusting Columbus

Always hate that f***ing team

 

[Zeeker]

Lmao...
Just tank pls....

We’re getting enough points for that coveted 17th OA spot in the standings

 

[Tres Peleches]

This league should just fold and the referees assigned to clean toilets at Arby’s for the rest of their life

Though I’m not sure they’re even qualified for that

 

[SI90]

I know Roy is happy to be back in the league and trying to be on his best behavior, but this is the time where I would love to see him go apeshit and get a fine.

You hate every team, even the most innocuous of opponents like Columbus

 

[Green]

Lmao...
Just tank pls....

the time to tank was a few weeks ago, Lou opted for mediocrity and to try and squeeze in an 8th seed and that is what we have

I could list 15 teams I have no issues with

 

[scottywiper]

We can't find evidence that something didn't happen. So we will assume something did.
That is some seriously f***ed up logic by the f***tards in Toronto.
There was plenty of evidence it was a good goal.

So you’re saying if Lou didn’t trade Nelson, isles would solidly be in a playoff spot now?

 

[Green]

I get the feeling the refs and perhaps the league are giving Columbus the benefit of the doubt this season after the tragedy in the off-season and I wouldn't be surprised a bull shit call like that and Toronto deciding not to over turn it is a result of that

 

[doublechili]

Just call it a goal! Situation room should be there to say hey no way look at this again, should be called off

Exactly. That ref had no business waving the goal off like that when it wasn't a clear/egregious interference. That's a ref wanting to be the show - makes me sick. Let it go and then allow the Situation Room decide if it's... a situation.

 

[Zeeker]

It’s kind of strange to hate half the league though (and seemingly the entire Eastern Conference).

Especially teams like Florida who have been nothing but good to us (lose to us in the playoffs twice in the last decade, then beat NYR)

Im going to guess that TO was not happy at the ref putting that out there.

If you think a referee is thinking about giving Columbus borderline calls because of that in the third period of a tie game 70 games into the season you need to have your head examined.

 

[islesmb]

Let’s also not forget the series of icings the one that deflected off of a blue jacket that wasn’t waved off directly led to a goal.

Look at it this way...
Toronto Loves Every Team who is going against the Isles.
It's always been this way.
When we shook the record books from '79 to '83, The Eggheads up North have always had a Bug Up Their Asses about us.
19 straight playoff wins....
Nobody has done that since and nobody ever f***ing will!!!!

 

[scottywiper]

If the refs can’t call the game properly, everything that goes in the net should be a goal. If it needs to be reviewed, leave it to the situation room. The refs are trash.

That's the thing. He could have just allowed the goal and then had it reviewed. In which case it stands as a good goal. The review simply allowed the error to stand. What sort of system is that???

 

[MarsTBOW]

50%/50% Calls go against us seemingly always go against when another team especially "Needs Help"

 

[Green]

well again I am guessing the league and the refs are probably hoping Columbus gets the final spot just as the feel good story after what happened and they have the power to give team edges

That's why they waived it off immediately....

Just stop.
