Watching the series for the first time...wondering how it is that the Lightning is able to have so many young kids in the lineup and be effective, when the Canucks' past management and hopefully past coaching staff is deathly afraid about inserting youngsters into our lineup.

Really...are the Lightning rookies that much better than our prospects?

Brutal call on the disallowed TB goal.

NHL HAS to do something about getting calls right. Tampa Bay should be pissed.

I agree. And it unravels teams...they lose focus while momentum totally shifts in favour of the team getting the breaks/calls. Completely changes games.

They should look at every waved off goal and have a review - especially in the playoffs when it's so critical to get it right.

The Canucks are more worried about trying to recapture 2011 than in taking the proper steps to evolve and move forward.

This right here.

Plus most of canada wanted us to lose in 2011.

Exactly. Team Canada plays at many other tournaments that you can watch and cheer for. There are 7 different Canadian NHL teams for a reason and not just 1.

This game hasn't been officiated very well, the cross check penalty on Briere that led to a Tampa goal was a brutal call. Then of course the waved off Tampa goal. First of all even if there was contact, the play went on for a few more chaotic seconds before the puck went into the net. Price had to time to recover from the contact by Desharnais and Killorn, he sold the Goalie Interference hard by continuing to scramble in the crease. I think either it should have counted as a goal or the play should have stopped earlier. Probably should have just been a goal. To much confusion there, ref didn't even know what he was doing.

Despite the bad reffing, this has been a very intense game with lots of scoring chances and nice hits. Theres even been some sick plays made by Subban. Like the Touchdown pass on the first play of the game, and then there was the wraparound pass to Galaghar who went bar down after the tampa guy tripped over the net and pretty much did a front flip. Also I wonder if Stamkos has been concussed.
