SCF Game 5: Florida Panthers Vs Vegas Golden Knights | 8:00PM ET 5:00PM PT | TNT, TBS, TruTV, CBC, SN, TVAS

[HanSolo]

Those Vegas Golden Knights cheerleaders are going to rub the defeat into the Florida Panthers' faces.

I wanna see one scream directly in Gudas' face.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

I thought it didn’t count if the whistle is heard before it goes in? I’m confused.

Earlier this season (or last?) against the Wings they allowed a Malkin goal when the whistle blew because they ruled that Malkin's stick was in motion towards the net during the whistle.

I didn't like the call at the time but there's apparently language in the rule that allows that.

 

[Clint Eastwood]

Whistle or not, Staal shouldn't be in this league, let alone the SCF.

Florida making it as far as they have with Marc Staal in their top 4 might be an excellent sign of things to come in the next couple of years.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Funny that.

Omg I only heard the second whistle. I think there was intent on the first one I never heard that one. But the replay I don't. Oof

 

[NeverBeNormal]

Couldn’t sum this series up better. Refs are just way too big a factor for this to actually be a good series. It had a chance too.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Truth is Panthers haven't done much with Tkackuk in the line up. They are down 3-1 and facing elimination.

They've done more than 30 other teams.

 

[MichaelFarrell]

That might be a stretch but they've definitely worked hard.

They’ve straight up out worked every team they’ve played. Their opponents cannot handle the pressure and pace they put on. They’ve been outstanding and have made a lot of great teams look like shit.

 

[Guided by Veseys]

It looked like horseshit but then about a minute later I realized it wasn’t even really covered at all. It was actually about as good of call as you can get. The other suspect calls this series makes it seem unfair though.

 

[Sombastate]

Holy shit.

Where have we heard this story before, these playoffs?

In a series including the Panthers, even....


Sucks that all the shit the Panthers benefited from earlier in the playoffs, they're not now, and it's delicious now.

I have literally posted in this thread that I want VGK to win today.

If you're ok with bad, inconsistent officiating and terrible calls. Enjoy yourself. You have a good game to watch ahead of you

 

[pcruz]

Same reason Carolina and Toronto lost 4 times to them?

Florida players were interfering with Bruins and Hurricane players while scoring game-winning goals as well?

And by interfering, I mean holding the stick of the defending player.

 

[Puckstop40]

It's also the lowest rated Finals since 2007, I don't know if that's a combination of the teams playing and it being on TNT.

Probably a combination of both.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Isn't it supposed to be intent to whistle is when play is dead?

Ye I really wish it could be reviewed without a coaches challenge.

Someone mentions motion of stick somewhere else and that's some sort of language.

I really want it to be looked at even if after the period

 

[dhfa]

I walked to the kitchen for a few seconds and it's 2-0

 

[KOPITARRULEZ11]

Just blows my mind panthers and heat completely getting clowned in finals after playing outta their minds in first 3 rounds

 

[Barrsy]

EXACTLY... FLA knew it was a good goal.

But that doesn't change that people on here are just gonna blame the ref as usual lol

But explain to me the whistle blowing before the puck goes in.

 

[max21]

Fook Vegas and fook the maywedders

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Florida making it as far as they have with Marc Staal in their top 4 might be an excellent sign of things to come in the next couple of years.

Yeah, without Staal and Ekblad, we could have dmen who don't leave their partners out to dry.

 

[GMR]

The Miami Heat and Florida Panthers were good stories until the Finals. Like the handicapped kid being named prom king. It's only funny until it isn't.

 

[robertocarlos]

Remember those Nashville jerseys? Those were quite a dish!

Fifteen minutes ago some mustard from my hotdog dinner landed on the white dining room table cloth. That was a sign.

 

[jcs0218]

I wanna see one scream directly in Gudas' face.

Like how Gudas did to Woll?

 

[ViD]

I would be losing my shit if that was my team getting f***ed like that.

Playoffs are so much less stressful when your team isn't in it.

First world problems.

I’d be happy to see Columbus in it whatever happens

 

[Boston Bandit]

Vegas is just relentless

 

[Barrsy]

They've done more than 30 other teams.

Not really. Trash conference

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Florida players were interfering with Bruins and Hurricane players while scoring game-winning goals as well?

And by interfering, I mean holding the stick of the defending player.

Cool.

 

[Czechboy]

I wanna see one scream directly in Gudas' face.

I'm sure he does too!
