SO, Lightning fire Cooper. Oilers HIRE Cooper. NHL investigates 97's comments after the Lightning road win in EDM late in the season.

Result: Edmonton is forced to send a third-round pick to the Calgary Flames.

I haven't commented on this until now. "Logic" all of a sudden enters the equation as a valid means for calling goals "good", despite overwhelming history to the contrary.

Some simple facts from this goal:

- No official was in position to make this call on the ice, it should have been ruled no goal on the ice. That's just the facts. No ref was below the hash marks or anywhere close enough to conclusively call it in. No signal was made to this effect. Positioning failure should not result in one team being effectively penalized for that.
- When such cases are ruled no goal on the ice, you need overwhelming conclusive evidence the puck completely crossed the line. Last I checked AI removals of objects and drawing circles around the puck aren't part of the situation rooms process.
- If the league has a additional view that was used in this decision, that should be publicized.
- It is my opinion that this puck completely crossed the line, but based on how these calls have historically gone, the process that has been used until now was tossed in the trashcan. So while the calls result is ultimately what we want from the on-ice product, the process that has been used up until now was completely thrown out the window. The league has a bit of soul-searching to do here and I believe this is a reasonable point to be perturbed with from the Oilers perspective.

You can get the call right, and the process wrong, which means they need to change the process. Changing it on game 86 of the season is not the time.

Why the fuck does Jack Michaels have to say shit like “the oilers are 10 and a half minutes from tying the series”

In a 3-2 game that’s close as fuck.

Buddy shut the fuck up

Connor McDavid is the best player on the planet and that won’t be changing anytime soon

He absolutely deserves the Hart.

Gotta love nhl refs ruining a good hockey game. It’s always against the Oilers.

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

@PierreVLeBrun Pierre how about you comment on the bs reffing instead of acting like nothing happened on that play

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

Fuck the nhl and their bullshit fucking referees. Three years in a row of this garbage.

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

@Sportsnet Some nice interference off the faceoff by Barkov too

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

@nielsonTSN1260 Was banking on the fact the league hates the Oilers. Convince me otherwise lol

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

@PeteBlackburn Banking on the league hating the Oilers. No other explanation.

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

@heatdaddy69420 Worst reffed game I’ve ever seen in my life

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

@PeteBlackburn They need to start snapping their heads back every time they get touched by the Kings like their players are doing

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

@JasonGregor Why doesn’t the ref pull his head out of his ass. All valid questions.

[DC Oilers Fan @DCOilersFan]

@dstaples @BRHarvie Genuinely curious what you find woke about it? Who cares if they have different races playing characters that we’ve seen only as white before. They’re not bringing identity politics into the show and making it a talking point.
