When you play so long that you preempt the following game to 16 hours later.

If the Jackets win, Vasolugo becomes a legend.

I wanted to point and laugh at Tampa and now I'm pissed.

How are you not going to give a penalty or a penalty shot from f***ing bringing down a man who is through on goal? No attempt at playing the puck, just two hands from behind on Atkinson.

Wasn't a penalty. Not holding, not hooking, not roughing, not tripping, not cross checking. It looked pretty bad, but as the announcers mentioned in the replay there's nothing there.

They did also miss two times where Tampa had too many men

Christ, they still have to talk to the media after a six hour game? F*** all that.

Upon further review, might be clean. But generally speaking, I feel like it's dumb to referee these overtimes in the "we only whistle for broken arms and delay of game" way.

It's overtime playoff hockey for Bruins/Hurricanes! We could be here all afternoon.

The irony the game postponed by OT may postpone another game today.

So the Blues are playing like absolute shit. What a downer. We weren't on fire before the restart, but we were a good team. Operable word being were.
Also, what the f*** NHL? You have a captive audience for your product, you have the best production/presentation our there (NBA's bubble game look f***in weird), and your idea is to broadcast TWO THIRDS of games and switch for no goddamn reason?? Who would broadcast the first two periods and let people get invested in the game IN PRIME TIME and then switch to the first period of another game. Repeatedly. Horrendous decision. No one with a brain would ever approve that.

They also miss calls in regulation. Special teams should be less of a factor in OT, but you shouldn't be able to get away with murder. And for the most part, that's what we get.
