Look at Ruslan Fedotenko’s stick between the legs of Nicklas Lidstrom. Lidstrom would have that puck 90% of the time … and that’s a penalty 90% of the time.

When Penguins play, did refs put whistles away?

This was CBC analyst Craig Simpson’s take last night on the play that happened just before the Penguins second goal last night. I said almost that same thing when play was happening. How can a guy take his stick between the legs of another player and lift up until the point of knocking the player on his ass? In what world is that not tripping?

All that said, the Pengiuns were probably the better team last night but it’s sad that each team has had valid excuses every single game this series with the poor officiating.
