this is why players embellish, just has to look like something happened
i'm not indicating pastrnak dove in this situation, just pointing out the result can be rewarded even if there was no infraction
Spoken like someone who doesn't watch other sports. At least NHL refs make a show of being unbiased.How is a ref calling penalty on a play he didn't see any different from a ref not calling a penalty on a play he did see? NHL has the worst reffing of any major sport, that's a fact.

please go on and give examples/facts on this....while your at it go ahead and look up PP to PK ratio and use that as proof....feel free to throw out the old "they play dirt/cheap" argument as well.Ducks always have the luckiest stuff like this go their way.
Bruins won the game, what are you complaining about? Ducks haven't even scored a powerplay goal yet.
Even bigger problem IMO is the mindset these reffs seem to have, where they feel the need to make a make-up call. Two wrongs doesn't make one right.

NBA refs blatantly try to hand the game to certain teams, let guys like LeBron take 9 steps between dribbles and call fouls on any hot player that plays for the wrong team.
oh please Boston has a +6.7 PIM disparity vs their opponents.
Since 2015, the Ducks lead the league in penalties against with 1135 (Winnipeg is second with 1096). Discounting Vegas, they’re second worst in PP for with 933 (Columbus 1st with 922). Nobody is remotely close to that -213 disparity, so no, the Ducks absolutely do not always have the luckiest stuff go their way.Ducks always have the luckiest stuff like this go their way.
David Pastrnak gets called for a penalty after a Ducks player toe picks in the slot. Pastrnak never touched him.
the fact that even a regular fan can anticipate a phantom call shows how bad the officiating has become.
Think this stems from the fact they can’t retract a bad call. I’ve seen it live once in 30 years of watching hockey, the Crosby/Bruins incident if I remember correctly.Even bigger problem IMO is the mindset these reffs seem to have, where they feel the need to make a make-up call.

If the other ref could just say to his partner that whatever he thought happened really didn’t (and to stop drinking during games), it would go a long way.
I find it funny they’ll do it for certain things but not others.Yeah, I understand the reasoning behind it. I just don't agree it's the right thing to do.
I think they should at least entertain the idea of conversing more often and reversing the call if it's obviously the wrong one. I understand why they don't do it, since there are a lot of penalties that are up for interpretation.
Draft luck is only as lucky as the strength of the draft at the top. They’ve had the best pick of this decade but also the worst. As an Oiler fan im insulted you would even question my knowledge of extremely fortunate breaks in extremely key times going the ducks way. So pretentious. Oilers fans could write a novel on the topic.please go on and give examples/facts on this....while your at it go ahead and look up PP to PK ratio and use that as proof....feel free to throw out the old "they play dirt/cheap" argument as well.
and while we are looking at the "luckiest stuff going a teams way", lets look at the oilers 1 OA picks
