I am a Bruin fan through and through. I’ll be the first to admit MacAvoy got away with one according to the puzzy rules these days. Scott Stevens wouldn’t be able to play these days. LOL

I'd be surprised if player safety doesn't give Mcavoy a couple games for that. Totally predatory head shot, and he's a repeat offender.

How that was a two minute minor instead of five and a game....??

He may not even get a game since Anderson is back playing. But maybe one.

Leery of calling a major due to what happened to the last two refs that did perhaps?

Yeah that made me SMH as well, a 2 min illegal hit to the head???? Ummm HUH?? Like Trochu said though, the last guys who blew it in Vegas aren't reffing anymore playoff games, so i am thinking they are a little gun shy. Don't want another Vegas / Sharks fallout..

Perhaps that did have something to do with it.....Will be curious what Player Safety sez. I believe they review every head shot penalty, no?

I would think they will be looking for sure.
Man another good game with Sharks and Avs.. I can't get over how much ice time Makar is getting with the top line, gets the call with 7 sec left in regulation time. He is playing so good. Love seeing a local kid doing so well.

Anderson came back to play so i’d Say that they got the call right. Now, if he was knocked out of the game or worse, there would have been a s**t storm over the call. The way that it turned out I don’t think that it’ll be too big of a controversy. He still might get a fine or suspension but given the circumstances I don’t think that it will be severe.

Agree. My son roomed with him and played a bunch of games with him for a summer tournament in New England (thru Brooks Bandits, my son was carded to them). Says he's a really decent kid too.

How was the Bruins-Columbus series? Tough watching games when they air at 8 am here and I’m already up and about. Wanted to watch that one badly!

If Dallas advances and wins the cup, Bishop will get the Conn Smythe trophy based on this game only. Unreal goaltending at both ends.

Yeah, Bishop has that look like he can stop a hundred if that's what it takes for his team to win. Unreal.

How many times have I seen a team dominate all game with the other team just hanging in there and the underdog manages to win?

Now that was an amazing game, wow. Tough one to loose but St. Louis played better IMO. Love that playoff hockey. Another game 7 tomorrow I think will be just as entertaining.

What an entertaining game I think would have had to stay up all night just to see how that one ended if it would have kept going. It had the goaltending in both ends to last a while. Lucky bounce on that goal, Bishop had no chance on that one.

X2 excellent game. Without Bishop, she'd have been done in 60

Didn’t take long for Pavelski to factor into the game!

No. Avs seem to be targeting him too....don't care for that, but after a goal and assist I guess that's just strategic....

Sharks seem to rely on the refs pretty hard in these game 7's
