Yeah. I just don't think the argument is there because even if he was technically in the crease, Howard didn't even try to reposition himself. He was just caught off guard. I just don't think the spirit of the rule was there.

Could this game be any more stacked.

wow chicago giving up with penalties...there is plenty of time to not do that lol

Hawks need some more puck luck(and maybe a disallowed goal reversed to the correct call) and they'd probably be winning this. Rebounds and post shots not going their way tonight. Unfortunate that they've dominated for large stretches and been denied by the post, only to play shit for 5 minutes and have the Wings capitalize.

Nah, the underdog is already overcoming the stacked team.

that wasa pretty weak call lol
why know one knew it

what a horrible call...

This.

punching brunner in the head like any real "A" would do in a playoff game

Thanks the ref and the post. Only really two good goals scored in thsi game, by Hossa and Datsyuk. Other two wings goals were defensive breakdowns by Chicago. And Chicago's 2nd goal was a greasy goal.
