Empty netter by Datsyuk sails wide right 1;00

[Drew]

Empty netter by Zetterberg.

5-(edit out 3) 2

[Drew]

Should have b een Franzen's shot but he was tripped. ON the delayed penalty, Zetterberg picked it up

[Drew]

A ruckus and a penalty to chicago. Game over now.

[FCRhodes]

Franzen was tripped on a breakaway. Would it have been a penalty shot with no Goalie?

[chemiclord]

No. The opposing team would be able to put a goalie in the net on the stoppage of play.

[FCRhodes]

The announcers made it sound as if the penalty would be an automatic goal.

[chemiclord]

Hmm... I suppose I could consult the rule book again. BRB.

EDIT: And I am indeed incorrect. According to the NHL Officiating Department, if a player is on a breakaway to an empty net with the puck in his possession, it is scored as an automatic goal. If the fouled player does not yet have puck control, it is a 2 minute penalty.

I thought today's game was pretty fun to watch as opposed to the hack-fest that was last series.

Cleary is playing fantastic!! I was REALLY hoping he'd have gotten the hatty. Did anyone read the article in the freep about how Babs wanted to cut him in TC years back but Holland trumped him because he made a promise to his agent to let him play 4 games in exhibition? Great move Holland!!!

I remember reading about that TC and how they didnt know where he'd fit but he was highly touted as a prospect.

I prefer this type of game also.

Of course WINGS fans love wide open hockey games. That style totally favors the WINGS and the way they are built.

The only real chance to beat them is to stand them up all game, every game and not let them fly around.

The WINGS are going to breeze to the cup after the DUCKS because no other team is built to compete against them the way ANA is/was.

Gonz also enjoys a good romantic comedy like like that one on HBO: OZ .........

[froot loops]

Ha!

Teams can also try and build an even better offensive team than the Wings.

[Panoptes]

Step 3 on the master build list in ANA.
