Does the AHL have replacement refs too? How was that not a penalty when Grant was hooked to the ice at their blueline? And of course they call the Dumoulin hold seconds later...
Go Baby Pens! ... (I'd almost be curious to see a poll of what Hf'ers would be willing to pay for AHL access. I really wonder about some of these price points, and whether they make sense ... or what sort of other factors beyond just selling the thing at whatever price brings in the most revenue might be at play.)
Based on the experience so far, I'm glad I didn't get the year package if this is the norm. Video quality is poor, audio is choppy/slightly out of time, you can't put it in full screen and use another screen to do something else (it will minimize again), there's no score/time display and I almost wasn't able to watch the start of the game due to site problems. I'd say it was worth half what they're asking at best.

I was stunned that they didn't call the penalty once the missed call lead directly to a scoring chance. That's how it usually works with blatantly missed calls. The ref will just let it go unless it leads to something then let loose with the late whistle.
Great game so far, should not be 0-0. Forward lines and D pairings seem all over the place. I notice Strait has switched to #7, Zatkoff took over #37. Morrow wears #6, Dumoulin #8.
And the commentators still have their mics open during intermissions.
Warren Peters is lookin' really good. I think if there's ever an NHL season he would be one of the first call-ups if one of the Pens' 4th Liners are hurt.
