What a game. Hilarious ending. How that ref missed an obvious goal right in front of him is beyond me. Avs dominated that OT.
So was the too many men penalty as blatant as pundits are making it out to be, or is that just to cause controversy? Per the letter of the rule, I guess it was, but seems like that happens an awful lot. McKinnon was clearly on his way out and not involved in the play, and Kadri didn't touch the puck until he was almost on the bench.
Congratulations to Justicebork, who is guaranteed 1st place after the Avs sweep. Bravo!
The Minnesota Wild and the NHL were trying to get a handle on a developing situation Wednesday after multiple media reports surfaced out of Russia that Wild star Kirill Kaprizov is wanted in his native country for allegedly buying a falsified military ID card in 2017, when he was playing for Salavat Yulaev Ufa. Wild general manager Bill Guerin told The Athletic that Kaprizov is still in Russia, contrary to reports that he had fled for the United States.
This situation comes days after Philadelphia Flyers goaltending prospect Ivan Fedotov was arrested and taken to a military naval camp for allegedly evading mandatory military service. Fedotov has been accused of purchasing a fake military ID from a high-ranking military officer, who allegedly helped other Ufa athletes obtain the military cards as well.
