Zamboni_14 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Why the F is this Minnesota troll posting in a Canuck forum after we've lost? ... oh yeah the Mild won a game. They think theyre relevant again.

Zamboni_14 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 yes, lets blame the refs for our losses. not the lack of offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Mauviette75 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 How the hell do you throw something from your chest, backhanded without closing your hand on it. You idiots are worse than the people calling out the officiating. "Oh, maybe if I say the refacing isn't biased the other teams fans will like me, durrr!!" Pull your head from the darkest part of your you know what. That was a glaringly obvious call that was missed, as was the Kesler cross check, the hand on the puck in the blue paint, which, if you watch that clip you will hear the attitude that Daniel gets when he asks why the whistle went if not for the closed hand on the puck. But yeah. Totally unbiased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyotecanuck Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 What should be more alarming is the fact the once mighty PP has sucked for 2 seasons now without any major adjustments by the coaches. Time for them to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lychees Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The refereeing is atrocious for the series, but we deserve the 3-0 deficit the way we've been playing. A lot of non-calls and calls against us, seriously I hate the whole referee cop-out but refereeing this whole season has been terrible so why should we expect any different in the playoffs.

SamJamIam Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I don't really care who likes me or not honestly. The officiating really wasn't that bad. Feel free to disagree. Either way, the Canucks lost because of the Canucks, not because of the refs. There were a few missed calls for the Sharks too. Sometimes, the penalties are skewed. The Bruins got 4 seconds on the power play yesterday. The Bruins lost not because of the refs, but because they sucked, and the Leafs played a solid game. The whining is brutal.

Zamboni_14 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 You know that ol' saying in the NFL "you can call holding on every play". You can call an infraction in the NHL on just about every play too. What the refs do or do not call is Game Management. The turning point of tonight's game was Kesler not getting a call when he was crosschecked and Thornton getting crosschecked and drawing a penalty 30 seconds later. I mean even with it being Kesler who you could explain away a non-call with his diving reputation, Jumbo has the same reputation and he gets the call. He also drew that 5 on 3 call by raising his wrong hand after taking a slash on the hands. After a goal was scored I counted 1 slash and 2 hooks on the Canucks next PP that weren't called to give a 5 on 3 back to Vancouver. I'm not expecting the refs to call phantom penalties, I'm expecting them to enforce the rules over-zealously against the Sharks as they have been to the Canucks.

coyotecanuck Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 ummmm... what if the Sharks are playing a clean game and the 'Nucks are still hacking away? Are you saying the refs should start making "phantom" penalty calls? Oh wait.. you're complaining about the refs... so of course you don't want phantom calls... wait... you only want phantom calls against the OTHER team... because that's quality officiating, right? Calls against the 'Nucks... always unfair. Calls against the other team... always legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksSayEh Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The Weise penalty was garbage. One of the few players who has brought a playoff effort. Same as last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyotecanuck Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 were you also counting the slash that led to a scoring chance in the 3rd where the 'Nuck player CLEARLY slashes the stick out of the Sharks players hand? What about the interference by Kes (going off memory on who it was) on the blue line that prevented a 2 on 1 also in the 3rd? I know the saying, and I know if you had a 100% accuracy rate by the refs, it would be a dull game (since just about everyone would be in the box for some kind of interference.) But you can't rely on the refs to help you win/lose you games. you know as well as I do (because you've been here as long as me) that every playoff season this type of thread is created and you get a group of 'Nucks fans (that other 'Nuck fans will later say; "well that's just a few, not all of us blame the refs") that will pin every series loss on the refs and not the collapse of Cloutier, being a 1 line team, not having the goaltending, not being able to deal with physical teams, shallow defense, being a 1 line + 1 player team, taking stupid penalties, terrible PP, terrible PK, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Mauviette75 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 This level of stupidity should be banned. So let's see if I'm whining. Let's meet up, play some casual hockey, and I'll beat the crap out of you for 60 minutes like I forgot we're not in a UFC cage fight. Then I'll call you a whiner. ???? scum.

a Fool Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 In the last 8 playoff games, the Canucks have been on the PK for 26:07 minutes more than the PP. This isn't a new trend. It's not a level playing field pure and simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamboni_14 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 as was posted in the PGT, this is nothing new. Last time the Canucks came out on the plus side in PPs in a series was four years ago. That includes their run to the cup buddy. Explain that for me since you know so much about hockey. THE MOST DISCLIPINED team in the NHL in 2011 can't out PP one opponent on the way to the SCF? Not an coincidence. No way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmm Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 No Hockey League. It is amazing that this WWF style is controlled by officiating that decide outcomes. I really disliked both games because the momentum was altered to the Sharks by the refs. That is a rigged game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a Fool Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 yes, you're right. How could I have been so blind. The refs are forcing the 'Nucks to take stupid penalties. The refs are keeping the Nucks from scoring more than 2 goals in regulation in every game since game #4 in the WCF of 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smacken Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Every time I read a thread like this I just remember Roger Neilson. He's pretty much the only coach in our history who was able to get a level playing field in the playoffs. He had to raise the white flag to get one. Unfortunately he had to shame the league into giving him one and I don't think the NHL enjoyed it very much. Vancouver definitely has been put in their place again in this year's playoffs. San Jose is a very good team. But it must feel amazing playing a game decided by the smallest of mistakes, having so many of your mistakes forgiven by referees watching your back at every key moment of the game. It's a feeling of invincibility. And quite the opposite of what this fragile Vancouver team must be feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
