How they reverse that goal is ridiculous.

How they gave Buffalo the 4th goal in the first game is ridiculous.

I don't want to hear any whining from Buffalo fans about calls. The officiating in this series has been so pro-Buffalo it's obscene.

Whine after losing Game 1 by 3 [censored] goals, benefit from the officials in Game 2, and then pro-actively complain about Buffalo fans "whining" when nobody has. Just wow.

WTF are you talking about? Nobody said Buffalo didn't deserve to win game 1 or that they aren't the better team overall.

The benefit of the officiating in game 2? Are you high? Other than the x-check on Briere at the end tell me one call against Buffalo that was bad. ONE. Menawhile the Sabres have been handed two goals (one added to Buffalo and one taken away from the Rangers) on replay reversals that are just awful calls. TWO GOALS. Awful.

And nobody said any Sabers fan has been whining. What I said was not to whine about calls in the future after the gifts Buffalo has been handed in these 3 games. Learn to read.

Game 2 - punching a guy in the face in the faceoff circle before the puck drops, too many men on ice uncalled, Afinoginov penalty pointed out by a Sharks fan who probably couldn't care any less about the series...
And you continue to harp on the Game 1 goal while acknowledging it had little or no impact on the outcome - that's such a lame "we were screwed but I'm not whining" cop-out routine.
I hate getting suckered into this discussion...I think any reasonable person can agree that the 2-1 series is exactly where it should be not withstanding the poor officiating.
