That's a hit to the head for sure but not nearly as vicious as the boarding. Again, if either of these guys were injured suspensions would be coming.

Can the mediocre Capitals actually win a game this series if they don't get a gift call in the closing minutes of the third period?

Seems like this team relies on the refs' help to get by when they're under pressure. Carlson diving in game 2, refs ignoring a blatant trip in game 4...

Maybe the Rangers should work more on their PK

I love how fans treat a penalty like its an automatic goal

Your troll act just fails so hard.

The gift calls both resulted in Caps goals. Watch the games.

Id say the rangers being unable to kill a penalty resulted in a goal. Is a penalty with 5 minutes left really any different than a penalty 5 minutes into the game?

Please stop trolling. It's obvious the refs are aware that of the 8 teams left in the playoffs, the Rangers have the 7th worst PK. Why else would they give out penalties?

There have been bad calls in every game, in every series. Some teams are able to maintain focus for two minutes and not let the team score, others can't.

I actually have a good feeling about tonight... Just can't score first.

[Brandon Allin]

I feel like we'll see Blues/Flyers wins today, just my gut instinct.

Sucks that we don't have Couturier. Guess Matt Read will have to step up.

If the Rangers were as good as you say and the Caps were as bad as you say then you'd think the Rangers would win regardless of "gift calls"

[SwiftSilentDead]

Meh, everyone needs something to bitch about.

Couturier is likely playing
