My question is did it hit Ekholm slightly?

Because if so the high stick is negated

Just thinking about ex Blues as the national anthem fires up for the jets/golden knights:

When Pietrangelo was in stl … I can’t think of a team captain that flew under the radar so much.

Like go to games and rarely see somebody wearing his jersey, didnt really get star level loud applause during team announcements, isn’t really featured often on historic videos (even the ones when he was on the team still).

Yet he was and is outstanding, never disliked him, and never heard people complain about him, and while there were people who wanted him resigned, none of the people I interact with seemed to really care much.

It’s kinda weird.

Any of y’all have a captain like that?

Doesnt matter, the puck hitting Ekholm doesnt mean EDM had possession

If it hits anyone on the opposing team at all, I’m pretty sure that means the high stick is cancelled out

Yep

In general I look at this and its just to inconclusive

It might have hit this guy or that guy all that is outside factors. Friedman had a good discussion about it and got info from a GM on how they discussed it at the latest meeting and from the looks of things nothing will change now but if we continue to see tech advancements (new pucks and sticks that could change)

What needs to be determined is for 100% certainty did the puck hit the guys stick. I saw 5 angles, freezeframes and closeups and there is just not enough to overturn it. NHL should start developing a stick with sensors in it to detect this kind of stuff to allow for 100% certainty player X played the puck with a high stick.

Him coming back is scary as next to Kempe he was a driving factor in their offense.

Morrisey being out long term would really suck, he’s been having a great year, easily the Jets best D

Nice of Tampa and Toronto to give each other a warm up game before starting a best of 5 series.

I've missed the first four periods, but here are my OT winner predictions for both teams:

VGK - Nicolas Roy
WPG - Kyle Connor

Gotta win by two. One for the win and one for the inevitable missed call.
