This should be 2 points, they're even worse than us.

[loupowell52]

We currently have the advantage this season with 2 wins to the Stars single success.
The Grapes Count for this fourth match-up reads ;-
Panthers 6 : Stars 1.
Could get feisty if we start to run away with the match.

4-2 final!! 4 point weekend

[Mark]

A welcome 4 point weekend. Good effort from all concerned.

[John Casey]

Came alive in the 3rd Period.

Why The Giants released Payton Jones, I don't know.

Officiating as awesome as ever;

Dundee get a tripping call, A Star has a go at Myers and Sorenson steps him but only Sorenson gets a Penalty, making it offsetting.

Then the resulting Face Off is in the Panthers Zone, why I don't know, surely it's centre ice.

Then 8 seconds later, Dundee think they've equalised but it's disallowed. It certainly looked in.

Later on, Jones is ran into, Gagnon has words and only he gets called.

[sevcik]

I can only guess that when the Dundee goal was initially given by the ref (& play whistled dead) the puck hadn't fully crossed the goal line at that point - though it certainly did very shortly after

But yes the officiating for the Myers Gagnon incidents baffled me too.

I think the face off thing must be in the rules somewhere. Seen it a few times. A second penalty on the opposing team after the initial call sees the face off moved the other end.

The reviewed goal, I can only guess that the whistle had gone before it went clearly in after being pulled back the first time when sitting on the line.

I was also suprised to see them not review Dundees 2nd. At the time I thought it was a good goal, however it only just crept in the top corner and then bounced back out in front of the goal line. Not really a problem as I thought it was a fair call. To be that close though youd have thought theyd have checked.

Pretty sure the Stars player put it in anyway after it came back out so would have been a goal either way.

The disallowed goal was definitely on the line and not over when the refs whistle went,looked like Hammond put it in his own net after that anyway.

The 3rd period was ok but the first 2 were like watching paint dry. Still a nice 4 point weekend for once!

[Robbie Nud]

A fairly uninspiring perfomance, some fatigue from the previous night perhaps, having a shorter bench than both teams this weekend wouldnt have helped.
The goal that was allowed then disallowed, because the whistle had been blown before it had crossed the line, on the replay on the screen it looked clear when the puck fully crossed the line, so the ref on the spot who blew should have seen it.
Another typical officiating display from Sewell, I think he is poor and swayed by players and coaches haranguing him (ala Fox a few weeks back) that his decisions are 'strange' ie Sorensons penalty.

But at the end of the day a win is a win and a four point weekend.

I'm struggling to see it if it is.


Rule 76.2
"When an infringement of a rule has been committed by Players of both Teams in the play resulting in the stoppage, the ensuing “faceoff"
will be conducted at the nearest Face-off Spot in that zone."

Any help gratefully received.

Nice to get a 4 point weekend, good effort over the weekend from the majority.

Levin has looked really dangerous in both of the games, I thought he could have had a hat trick in the first 10 minutes of this game but he didn’t manage to finish any of them. The goal he did get was a wonderful snipe though, short side into the top corner. Him, Anderson and Izacky have played well as a line over the weekend, they need to remain together going into the game against Sheffield.

Jones was solid again and I’ll give credit to Brassard who did well to beat his man and finish low. He had a tough first half of the season but of late he’s been better. I noticed Lindgren didn’t play in the 3rd period of this game so hopefully that was just a precautionary measure
