There was only a correct high stick review. The missed call was the knee.LA wasn’t great all night but man did they ever fold like a cheap tent after the missed high stick review. Got to be able to pick it up after a controversial call.
I read after second period that this is the end and that we still can't find a solution against a playoffs team playing a playoffs style...well look we did find it...i am optimistic with Berube in the playoffs honestly
They have had a couple of wins that they didn't deserve, but for solid wins as you say are more typical.Typical leafs fashion
That is basically what most fans want.maybe Matthews fooled us the whole time and has been saving it for the playoffs
It wasn't a high stick. The knee was missed but that is never reviewed.It was clearly a high stick, but what did they say to justify the ruling
And the question is, why is that reviewable when a missed penalty call isn’t?
NoPlayoffs practice.
Stolarz back-to-back.
It wasn't even part of the goalWhy I hate instant replay. They're still debating it after the game on HNIC, so nothing is solved, comes down to humans being. Enough, ref made a call, deal.
Can they review a missed penalty?It wasn't a high stick. The knee was missed but that is never reviewed.
It wasn't ruled a high stick because The Situation Room supported the Referee’s call on the ice that Auston Matthews’ stick was not above the normal height of his shoulders when he contacted the puck at 19:13 of the third period (47 seconds elapsed time) – eight seconds prior to his goal. The decision was made in accordance with Rule 80.1.Can they review a missed penalty?
I’m not really sure why they can review a missed high stick of a puck that didn’t directly result in a goal, but since they did, why wasn’t it ruled a high stick? Touching the puck with your stick above the shoulder is a high stick and it was clearly above his shoulder.
They ruled that but it was clearly above his shoulder and probably above his eye level.It wasn't ruled a high stick because The Situation Room supported the Referee’s call on the ice that Auston Matthews’ stick was not above the normal height of his shoulders when he contacted the puck at 19:13 of the third period (47 seconds elapsed time) – eight seconds prior to his goal.

That is what a captain does, and the former captain lent some shoulder as well.That Matthews 3rd period was insane
He willed them to victory

This is the home of Leafs Therapy and wild butthurt overreactions.Yes, the Bandwagon Boys had all jumped off the hype train by the 2nd intermission.
Some were proclaiming the Leafs will never win anything in the playoffs this year because apparently LA was playing “playoff hockey” tonight.
Others were insisting that Berube and Marner can’t possibly be brought back under any circumstances next year.
But once Toronto made it 2-1, the Bandwagon Boys were tripping over themselves to jump back on board.
Hurrrr durrr, Leafs Nation!

The referee made a judgement call but once we saw the replay it was clearly a high stick. The issue is with the review team.I have seen an angle where it appeared that way as well, but as it turned out the referee mad the correct call after all.
