Some good dives from both teams as demonstrated by those YouTube videos.
Yup, if you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'!
It's hilarious to me that people think this series is any different than any other bitterly contested series. Dives, cheap shots, gamesmanship, media manipulation, etc.
To Mike Gillis and the rest of the Canuck fans. Penalties aren't supposed to be called evenly, if you're team is obstructing more than the other team than naturally the other team is going to get more PP's..Mike Gillis makes no sense.
I'm sorry, but to say the Blackhawks aren't obstructing is just ridiculous. I'm not saying we lost because of it, but keep the calls even. If you're gonna penalize Torres for that goaltender interference, you have to call Bolland's slash on Sedin and a ton of other non-calls. The calls they missed weren't questionable, they were blatantly obvious.
In the second case especially, Daniel does get crosschecked from behind. What about Kane falling down like he's been shot seconds after Hamhuis taps him on the head?
So you're saying the Sedins are as big a pair of divers as Kane, then?
I'm a Calgary fan, I dislike Kane greatly, and I already think he's a soft diver. That being said, the Sedin vids and gifs are of them in this series and are just as relevant. Stop trying to deflect.
Except Chicago should have had several infractions called against them, especially last night, and they were let go.
Yeah, I'm not so bothered about the ones getting called on the Canucks. It's that they're calling two different games. Canucks game is being called tight, the they're letting the Hawks game flow.

Because both teams have divers doesn't excuse it for the ***** move it is, with players that should be called out for it and mocked.
Stop crying about the refs, it is not their fault that your team has blown a 3 game lead and guys you have given millions of dollars to haven't been good enough.
does anyone have a clip of the bolland/sedin slash?
Maybe that's how Bolland manages to play against the top players of the league. "If I slash their stick in half right before they get a scoring chance, then they won't be able to score!"

Was it also pathetic when Bowman did the same thing after game two and the Hawks ended up getting 7 powerplays compared to the 2 given to the Canucks in the very next game?

uh yea, so do you have a clip? I haven't seen the play and honestly just want to see what the fuss is about
I'll be the first one to trash the refs, but that interview was brutal. The refs haven't been great, but they haven't been bad enough to be the main cause towards the Canucks losing 3 straight.

Didn't Bowman go talk to the refs in their dressing room after Game 2?
