Watching the Flyers/Canes game. What is really strange is watching the different feeds. I have yet to find a non-bias feed. It's always oh poor us.

I watched the NY feed for the Caps team and I thought it was funny the first time I heard "Lundqvist had to make a save" as if it was something against his better nature. Isn't that what he's paid for? But then that's what they said for all the saves made by the goalies. Then when Brashear was in the fight with Shanny the announcers where saying that this was for what Brashear did to Jagr. All that I saw Brashear do was bump Jagr after the puck dropped. This is still hockey, right? Then the hit on Ovey from Orr. It wasn't until they saw the replay that they said it was a high stick.

It was the canes feed that prompted this vent. Forsberg was standing outside the crease and Ward was out at the edge of the crease. He went to butterfly at the edge of the crease and hit forsberg. A goal was scored in the melee (it wasn't forsberg) and Ward was calling for an interference call. The ref immediately pointed to the edge of the crease and indicated that forsberg was outside the crease. Then in a replay the announcers said,"interference is interfereing with a goalie in such a way that he is unable to do is job [shot is fired at the net and forsberg starts to move across the ice in front of the looking for a rebound if there was one] ward goes down and there is contact that is made that's a tough one."

I just saw it again and Ward's stick is clearly outside of the crease and is caught up in Forsberg's jersey. It would be interesting to get a goalie's perspective on that.
