NHL center ice fail: did not show replay as scheduled

Big win. Lucky win. Ice was tilted during the 3rd and in OT. Who wants to trade Lundqvist now? He kept the Rangers in this one.

Well, these highsticks are no where near the puck...so obviously they weren't seen. *dripping with sarcasm*

No help from the linesmen either who I've seen help make the calls when the refs miss them. 4 blind mice once again.

Watched the Toronto - Buffalo game earlier and those teams seemed hungrier and more confident than the Rangers right now. Rangers have to bring it every night these last 13 games.

Loved McD jumping on LaCouture for going in too hard on Lundqvist. Takes a rookie to stick up for the team's best player!

All these sticks to the head and no calls. Yeah, trying to keep head injuries down, my ass. This league is a fucking joke.
