  1. 2nd turned back goal, they are talking about how much Gibson got pushed, but dude, he hit him over the back of the head with his stick…

  2. Say what you want about the refs and whether or not they were diving, if you get double the shots, like 7 power plays, and get your goaltender pulled after the first period, and let in a shorthanded goal…it's a YOU problem…

  3. The difference in reaction and energy for the Detroit vs Ottawa goals is hilarious by what should be a neutral broadcast ✌️😂

  4. Redwings sit atop the division with a -4 goal differential. Has a team ever made the playoffs let alone won the division with a negative differential?
