Okay that's fine, I don't disagree that their PK still should have done that. It was bad, no doubt. I am just saying let us pretend there is no call, or even a 2 minute minor. Does Vegas lose their minds then? Or is it likely that it is a 3-0 or maybe even 3-1 or 4-1 (empty netter) game? You have to factor in that this is more than likely what happens without that bad call. What Gallant should have done is call a time out immediately after that first goal. I can't remember if he did or not, but he should have, if anything just to calm the troops down.
It reminds me a bit of the 1985 St. Louis Cardinals. Game 6 World Series. Bottom of the 9th they are up one run and three outs away from winning a World Series. First base umpire Don Denkinger made a bad call at first base for what should have been the first out. It was not pretty, there was plenty of time for him to react to see that was an out. It wasn't one of these things where years later you realize that the player was out by 1/100 of a second. Anyway, St. Louis lost their minds after that, then there was a pop fly that the catcher and the first baseman, Jack Clark dropped because neither of them called for it. It ended with Kansas City scoring two runs that inning. Game 7 it was 11-0 for Kansas City.
To an extent Denkinger cost St. Louis a World Series. Now, they did have a chance to finish that inning and they did have a Game 7 so the Vegas thing is worse I think. I don't know, I just remember last year cheering for Vegas because I just didn't want that sort of blackmark on a win. No hockey fan wants that, even for a team they aren't cheering for.
