The OFFICIAL Let's burn down the War Room in Toronto thread

The fact those jobbers get paid should be enough to be classified as international war crimes!

NHL is the only sport where they get it wrong more than half the time.

Honestly, more often than not, their decisions make me just kind of go "what the eff are you smoking, Toronto dudes?"

Okay, there is supposed to be a pretty big storm tomorrow, so I will wait until the weather is tolerable before leaving the comforts of my warm home towards downtown.


They want us in Kansas City.

Even the Tampa fans probably think we got screwed worse than they did tonight.

Jobbed yet again. Terrible game for the review team, on-ice officials and Leclaire.

That "rule" seems to be the most inconsistent call within the National Hockey League. Hooking, which was questionable, right after the lockout in the "new NHL" is, by and large, fairly consistent NOW. When it comes to "kicking motion" calls it's a coin toss.

They really need to review that in the offseason and supply more definition and clarity around it.

It seems to me that we get screwed more often than not on these "kicking motion" goals. BS. I blame Bettman and the wh*re room.

It was a great game, very entertaining. And I'm happy with the one point we got. And it was a tough job for the refs, they did the best they could.

Optimus, are you a bad loser? This thread is kinda silly in my opinion, the decision in Toronto was correct. Or maybe this is just some sort of a Opti-joke

Someone in the organization has to have the balls to go on record and say something about this. Hitch hinted at it in the interview, but someone needs to flat out say it - we get screwed by Toronto and it has to stop.

Someone. Hitch, Howson, JPM, Nash...someone. It might not change much, but it will get attention. Who gives a **** if you get fined, you make millions on millions a year.

ive watched us get screwed over for too long to just let this slide.

it was very entertaining but there is no freaking way that the refs did "the best they could"

i mean just look back at the ones refs reaction when he called it a goal. what a joke of a ref. terirble calls on both sides. im not gonna be okay with this one for quite a while

Stop whining about that OT goal, it was no goal.

What makes me mad is that we lose so many good players in fights, players who can't fight and should never drop the gloves. This wouldn't be a problem if we had a true fighter out there, other teams would respect us...now they don't. And you keep telling me that enforcers mean nothing...kiss my..

Some form of official protest from the fans needs organized and made loud and clear.

I will be trying to get posters and stuff into the game, it's not like getting the War Room pissed off at us is going to make any difference.

Simply put, the obvious bias has to stop. We are a franchise that's learning how to win, we don't need the league making it harder.

I would like to point out again, that you are wrong.

I would like to see you kick a puck while flying through the air while being pushed from behind with your head and shoulders extended beyond your feet. I doubt he could even see the puck never mind kick it.

Let me know how that works out for you.

I don't think it was conclusive, but there was one angle, from behind the goal, where it looked like he kicked it.

I knew as soon as they showed that one that they were going to overturn it.

Yes. End of story.

Brassard did not need to drop his gloves there. An enforcer did not need to drop his gloves there.

We will earn the respect of other teams when we have more points than them in the standings and more goals than them on the board.

You are almost as wrong on your second point as your first.

Very disappointing of course, but rules are rules. You can see the puck moving away from the net, then Malhotra's skate makes it change direction. I'm man enough to say the decision is correct.

This is the Jackets board, but I really don't like the massive homerism in here

As soon as I saw Brass drop the gloves I though "uh-oh..." Just like Rusty a few years back when he broke his hand in a senseless fight.

I respect what Brass was trying to accomplish. I really do, but for this team - a team that has never even sniffed the playoffs - we've got to be smarter and not let our skilled players go down like this.

I just hope none of them attend snowblowing camp at Joe Sakic's place during winter break...

It's not being a homer if we're actually right.

Our captain was hammered into the boards, did you like to watch that? Would you like it if we just stood there like a bunch of sissys? We had no tough guy on the ice to take care of it, Brassard felt he had to do something...and next he's on IR for 4 weeks.

But enough is enough, we're all mad now. Howson will do something about it soon, I'm damn sure about that.
