Bruins/Lightning Thread

A roller-coaster of emotions in my living room tonight. They have got to win this series but it is painfully obvious that it will not be easy!

I'll be the first to ask: If Bergeron is back who sits Thursday?

It was the Seguin/Ryder show. I like the kids speed and drive. Someone else is leaving when Bergy comes back on Thur that is for sure. My bet is someone like Cambell as it will nor disrupt the bergy line not the ryder/seguin chemistry.

BTW, I don't care what refs said last night on goal 5...it was no goal. The reason:

"If the goalkeeper’s helmet/facemask comes off during play, the Referee shall stop play immediately. A minor penalty shall be assessed a goalkeeper who deliberately removes his helmet/facemask during play."

His facemask was off LONG before the puck went in. Heck, the puck went off is FACE and in and the ref saw that. The refs got that one wrong.

From what I read, the refs have some discretion with the whole mask thing. Apparently if the attacking team is "in a scoring position" then the whistle may not be blown. Seeing as how the puck was to the side of the net, I would say that is not a scoring position as the player had to bring it back out in front before shooting it off Thomas' face!
