Nobody has said "not that evidence". Not one single person. What we have continuously said is that one game is not proof of any widespread conspiracy to help the Bruins.
Again, I’m using this one game to establish the pattern of officiating. But you are so hung up on shutting down any talk about the officiating that you’re losing your minds (not you specifically, but the 4-5 bruins fans who have been replying to me), I will never get to the later parts of the argument. If we can’t agree that game 2 in 2019 was officiated one-sided, there’s nothing else I’ll say that will make any sense to you.
The Mcavoy on Hyman play is not interference lmao. You can hit a guy after he lets go of the puck. I humored you, watched the highlights, and left my comments, which you completely ignored. The worst miss calls were the Gzreclyk high stick and Tavares pushing Rask in the crease. The DeBrusk knee was borderline, but I can't see him moving his leg, so it looks like incidental contact to me. What other play did you have an issue with?
Right there, we are on two different planets. The play on Hyman is interference.
Interference is covered by rule 56 of the NHL rule book and states that a player isn’t allowed to restrain or impede an opponent with any part of the body or stick if the opponent isn’t in possession of the puck
How can anyone have an actual conversation with you about officiating when you don’t even know the rules.
If you’re a bruins fan, maybe that makes sense. Maybe you’ve never seen an interference penalty called before, I don’t know. Make it make sense
I agree that the knee on knee was borderline, but in a game going out of control the refs need to call that, or we end up with what happened in the end, a cross check to the face and a dive from debrusk to sell it.
And a suspension to Kadri
Aside from those plays, there shouldn’t have been a double minor to Kadri and debrusk, debrusk simply mauled Kadri, he should be the only one to go to the box.
That would have given the leafs 2 powerplays in a 0-0 game
Muzzin hit was borderline
Mauling Tavares in the crease was a penalty
Elbow to the face along the benches was a penalty
I’d have to go through each play one by one, but I think you get the picture.
If even be okay not calling the pasta hit if some of these were called. Especially the high stick to Tavares, that’s supposed to be automatic
Wait...
So one game is enough to prove your point, but not enough to prove mine. Is that what you're saying?
One game to set the terms of the discussion. I’m not stopping at that game, that game is to show you what the argument is. We never got to expand from there because you don’t want to
Again, every single person in this thread knows that refs manage the game. What we don't know, and what there is absolutely no proof of, is that they do it to favour one specific team.
Show me where I said the refs only do it to favor one specific team. That’s what you guys are saying I said. I didn’t say that. You made that up in your own mind.
I said the bruins benefit from favorable officiating. That doesn’t preclude the golden knights, the avalanche, the panthers, or the maple leafs from also benefitting from favorable officiating.
You’re making up your own argument here, I didn’t say that it favors only the bruins, or that the league favors only the bruins.
