Let me see if I have got this straight: Your theory is that Thompson faked a knee in an effort to a call that would be unprecedented in the history of the sport. You think Thompson tried to goad the ref into calling a Goaltender Interference penalty against his own teammate?
That's pretty wild. I think it might be a bit of a reach.

While he was lights out to start the game, it seemed he was rattled in the 2nd period. Lots of pucks to the net were big rebounds. Not sure if it was the crowd, the goals that went in or both that got to him.Thompson game time decision, boo him louder. Enter his exit from the ice to the Mike Ribeiro fake seizure hall of shame. Buddy probably wanted off the ice with how badly the Caps were leaving him hanging.![]()
