This info post is amazing, thanks!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This was one of the best games I can remember from Oshie. He was making plays during the stretches of the game where our whole team was stagnating. Extremely fitting for him to get the winner.
That waived-off goal will definitely be....controversial for a long while though.
yeah sucks for flyers fans although to be fair if the whistle never blows it’s possible that puck doesn’t go in 🤷♂️
Sucks more for wings fans, but yeah, maybe the players move differently if the whistle doesn't blow, maybe the puck does go in but the rest of the game plays out differently and we still win. It looked like the players lost sight of it too, which makes blowing the whistle a more understandable mistake, and given when it was blown waiving off the goal was the correct call.
If this happened in a game last month it would already have been forgotten, but the context makes it a big deal. I think it's going to be talked about for a while.
Amazing.
Also, the Caps eliminated the Pens from the playoffs!
