How Insane Has Bruins vs. Panthers Been? + What's Going On With The Refs? | SDP 

It's not a makeup call it's a call. A makeup call implies that two wrongs make a right. In this situation it's not the same thing. The problem with the Bennet situation is that he pushed Coyle into Swayman. The rule is set in stone at that point. It doesn't matter if Swayman can make the save or not. It's goalie interference and also it's supposed to be a 2 minute penalty. The Heinen situation is different because he wasn't pushed in. He made a small amount of contact all by himself. In that scenario the question then becomes did Bob have a chance to reset before the shot. He clearly did. He just got beat clean. These are not the same play at all. They are different circumstances and different parts of the rule are involved because of that. The call that didn't go Boston's way was a blown call and the refs even came back saying they didn't believe the player interfered with Swayman's ability to make the save. Which shows they don't know the rule. Because that's not the rule. In this case the call was correct and to the letter of the law.

Everytime the refs stop play for a goalie issue, I just think back to the playoffs when Tuukka lost his skate blade and the refs let play continue until Tampa scored. Ever since then, if I goalie so much as blinks at the wrong time play is blown dead.

"I hope they tear each other apart and the puck just sits there" - What a scene man! RIP Dutch, I will miss your energy.

Calling those the same type of gaolie interference is ridiculous. Two absolutely completely different plays.

Look up Tuuka Rask losing his blade, can’t move, yells at the ref forever!!! Then a goal gets scored and it counted!!! And I hate Tuuka

Guys I agree this is the worst officiated games this entire postseason!!! Absolutely nuts. People trying to compare the 2 scenarios are crazy!!! 1- guy cross checks defending player, knocks him into the right side of the goaltender! Then takes a rebound he prevents 2 players from defending and scores!!! 2- go back and watch every challenged goalie interference calls that get upheld or overturned and just laugh!!!

Don't forget the play where the Bruin was high sticked in the face by two separate Panthers within seconds and still no call.

This wasn’t goalie interference, not a make up call

I gave up on NBA years ago because of officiating. Nhl is getting pretty close to it.

I honestly thought Angel Hernandas from mlb was officiating.....lol

They were different degrees of goalie interference...the Heinen one could have gone either way...the Bennet one was flat out criminal, but there's no question they weren't reversing the McAvoy goal after that BS

it was also CRAZY when they couldn’t check on Swayman to see if he was okay when they pushed our player into him but they had to check on the other teams goalie when he was hit by a puck.

Pastrnak leads the playoffs in penalty minutes. The bruins have 4 players in the top 9 in PIMs.

If you watch the early whistle play on Bob in full speed, not just convenient snapshots, Tarasenko blocked the shot which Boston still took and it ends up on Barkov’s stick so more than likely it didn’t cost them a goal.

The idea this is a “makeup call” implies they’re similar situations. THEY’RE NOT, ONE WAS CLEARLY GOALIE INTERFERENCE AND THEN THERE’S THIS ONE. Aside, from the fact that the NON-CALL basically cost the Bruins the game and essentially THE SERIES (no the B’s ARE NOT coming back from down 3 games to 1, I’ve watched this team for my entire nearly 40 years of existence and they’ll lose tomorrow night MARK MY WORDS)

No no no no no... the officials did not cost the Bs a goal... Those several goals in different games were not simply costing a goal here and there... it cost 2 GAMES! Bs just need to move their feet better and stick it to any power "against" them... why would the Panthers be so defensive for the officiating? Simple: advantage. Obvious advantage. Are Panther fans that terrified of the Bs? Are the officials that evoked against the Bruins that they are intentionally calling like this? Sad state of affairs if either/both are true... can't they just play HOCKEY?? Are the rules that confusing??

"I need Maroon to score a big goal because hes just a skating mouth." Bro the blues have a stanley cup bc Maroon got the game 7 double OT goal vs dallas after Bishop and Binnington made like 50+ saves each.

Steve’s rant about NHL officiating was cathartic lol

The thing that's the most infuriating isn't the calls themselves (as much as they're absurd), it's the explanations that are nothing more than a terrible attempt at gaslighting the world. Like... we all have eyes and we all saw the video evidence you blatantly ignored when making this decision. Now you're going to "explain" away that evidence by saying it's all wrong? This league is expanding video review next season... WHAT GOOD IS VIDEO REVIEW IF YOU JUST IGNORE IT ANYWAY?!

CBJ V PIT When Werenski had his face exploded by a shot bleeding pints laying on the ice and then Pittsburgh scored.

Question that should be asked is why is the league protecting Bennett, he could shank someone on the ice and not even get a minor.

Loved to watch and listen to this

alright first time viewer you guys are spot on and hilarious. Sub

Have you seen the panthers trying to bait calls left and right

its certainly a better call than the bennet one, but both are confusing.

7:35 They didnt think Bob was hurt. That just sounds less incompetent then one of us lost sight of the puck and throught it was under Bob's pad.

Don’t tell me the Bruins are favoured. Do you guys remember the non call obvious slew foot against the bruins player in game six of the Blues/Bruins finals where everyone thought it was a guaranteed penalty and the ref didn’t call it. The blues take the puck and score. Blues end up tying the series at 3 and win game 7.

Was it goalie interferance when the puck hit borovsky in the shoulder and the ref blew the whistle

Btw, the Bruins lost the ensuing faceoff and the puck was cleared without incident. Good times

Sounds like Bob made a great save at 4:00.

They haven't figured out Goalie interference for 30 years now. It's the Pass Interference of Hockey. That it is a make up call is one thing. The larger issue is that the first miss was so bad, the Bruins knew they weren't getting the next GI call so now they can give Bob all kinds of usually illegal grief until they get their call back.

Hard for Swayman to extend his stick on the play with his defenceman laying on him and the stick... it's bullshit that he couldn't have made a play...

I would love to go over multiple calls and non calls to review

Dallas at Anaheim, last season (I think) had a play blow dead when Tyler Seguin was about to score. John Gibson had a shutout that night. Dallas should have, ya know, been able to score on the Ducks, but plays being blown dead when the puck is absolutely not covered, denying a goal, is unfortunately a thing.

Maroon only a skating mouth?? Actually, he is CRAZY SMART with the puck. Too many Bruin dump the puck and not chasing... Patrick keeps his head up and he THINKS about what to do... I never thought I would comment that "Patrick Maroon has tremendous hockey smarts." But he does...

Urinating Tree about Boston eliminating Toronto sincerely made me feel bad, scared and sad for Steve. God Bless Him.

holy moly. as a bruins fan, that question about the are the officials scared of reffin the bruins hits hard. its always either oh we got calls to go our way or wth are you doing stripes ahhhhhhhh. Thats so spot on.

I thought it was just me but hearing it from a Leafs fan confirms my sanity😂 Respect. There should be a stat for debatable calls going which teams way cuz the Bs would be the lowest😂😂😂😂

Not quite the same degree when talking about both "non calls." In the more recent one, the Panthers defender makes (slight) contact with the Bruins attacker right as the Bruins attacker makes contact with the goalie. Attacker getting "pushed" into the goalie usually negates it as far as goalie interference calls go. It is very soft, but it's a by-the-book way to validate it (not saying they didn't let it stand as a make-up for the previous one, but this one at least has justification by the rules). And I am not coming at this from the perspective of a fan of either team, if it were possible I'd want them to both lose 😂

GARRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYY!! Lol not even 12 mins Steve. He's been around 8-10 mins for us lol

And Campbell broke his fibula

Insane

Honestly I am getting sick of goaltending interference chalenges…building a fence around goalies would bring some piece at least. Hockey is a contact sport for god sake

THE SHOT GOT BLOCKED

It seemed like the referees were on the Panthers side from the very start had it out for the Bruins not right

Saying it’s borderline illegitimate is such a brain dead take. There’s 60 minutes of play…. Bad calls happen, good teams are in despite that

And there is another way to look at it. All playoff series are called differently. Depends on the teams. Always been this way. When the ref makes the first call, letting the GI go, there is your precedent. Ok. These guys are going to give us room in the crease. Jesse said it. No conspiracy. They're being consistent . The statement goes along with that. There was jostling but he reset. So it did not interfere with the goal itself. So that is what they allow this series. You have it on paper.

Shouldn’t the question be why isn’t the NHL doing something about it or commenting on it ? Not boardering on illegitimate. Totally bogus. .

So when Larrson boxed heinen into his own goalie it’s interference? Nope. Good goal.

As a Bruins fan I agree with everything. The officiating is horrible and I need my bottle and diaper changed.

Missed call sorry im a referee

lllegitimate - 100 Percent!!! Its Bettman's circus and he wants to be like Vince McMahon.

I think you should start callng the refs and linesmen out by name. Not doxxing them, but at least using names so that we know which refs are doing an even worse job than the less incompetent refs who are still doing a terrible job, but not quite as bad as others They have no accountability and the league has no accountability.

Steve has lost it

Community guidlines should put Bettlan in fb jail

“What’re you doing”… for one, please try sounding girlier saying that. You can’t if you try too, and two, the bruins won the game… had 0 bearing

Chat MaGoon

Lots of whining

Lol leafs fans are a bunch of whiners

Kindergarten

Make up call? Stick to something you know sport.

Worst officiating i have seen every series…..

Wylde Dingleberries and a Dangle.

Panther fans want to deflect off the officials being so horrific... Bruin fans are irate about their D dumping pucks only for the Panther Ds to easily gather and set their offense... Bruin fans are irate about the officials being horrific - THAT seems to be the most common theme everywhere. How did it get to this point????

The panthers have double the power plays that the bruins have had this series That is clear cut, the league wants the panthers to win and they’re using refs to do it but they don’t want to make it obvious Double the power plays almost NEVER, NEVER happens in a series

That is such a fkn cop out. "iT wAs a MaKe Up cAlL" get fucked. they explained it in clear words, yes he hit his skate in the crease, but he had time to reset before the puck was shot. Yes, his stick got knocked out of his hand, BY HIS OWN TEAM MATE. Don't cheapen the refs and call review team's jobs by saying they did it to balance out a bad call from a previous game.

steve has become a whiny little b. Stop squeaking, please.

The second round has been unbelievable hockey! The problem is the 24 hour coverage of hockey and people caring too much about an entertainment business. You aren't supposed to take it this seriously. I've quite enjoyed the playoffs. If you understand that the calls are out of your control, you'll lead a longer, more enjoyable life. Most pundits just sound like a bunch of whiners when things don't go their way. Cheers

That play was not similar at all

It is going to come down to goaltending. These teams finished neck & neck in the regular season. A lot of guys on both teams have playoff experience. Panthers overall have better offensive talent, but defensively, Bs are better. Bs are still in desperation mode, and they will be ready for the Panthers onslot at the start of the game. If the Panthers don't score quickly, it gets harder for them because Swayman is going to be locked down, and Bs guys are lying out to block shots. They know anything can happen in a game 7.
