Gotta love NBC hoppin on the NHL bandwagon once game 3 of the Cup comes around.

They've actually shown a couple playoff games. Lets just hope a game doesn't go into OT and they switch to the regularly scheduled programming like the did before!!

Ottawa beats the Ducks 5-3 to cut into the Ducks lead. Now 2-1.

I didn't see the game(working), but I have heard there was some bad officiating. Anyone care to explain?

I missed most of the game too, caught about the last 5 minutes of the 3rd. So the only bad call (or actually, no call) I saw was when McAmmond took an elbow to the head from Pronger.

Hmm, interesting, I heard about some goal by Alfredsson that shouldn't been allowed.

I am pretty shocked at the Pronger suspension.

This is the finals.

I didn't see the elbow JJ, Did you?

I knew he would be suspended as soon as he hit him. It may be the Finals, but there is no excuse for an elbow to the head.

Edit: This being the 2nd time he's done it in the playoffs doesn't help much either.

I only saw one quick replay. I couldn't really tell because it was so fast. If it was really flagrant, then I agree with the suspension. Put it this way, I've seen way worse elbows in my days. I'm not arguing that he shouldn't have been suspended. But I was just a little surprised.

I can't say because I have yet to see the elbow.

Saw a better replay. It was pretty darn obvious. You know what though, Pronger is a dirty player. He gets away with that type of stuff more than people think. He learned from Big Al. (Not disrespecting Al MacInnis, he was a great D man with a booming shot, but he played dirty when he had to).
