The same thing happened in game 1 when Franzen charged the net.. the goal went in and then Franzen charged over Hiller (and he wasnt pushed). Neither were called so its pretty even there. As for the called off goal, it was definetly bullshit, but it does happen. I also thought the game 1 call against mike brown was bullshit as there was no elbow, and it followed through a hit like any player would have. The NHL even said he didint deserve to be punished. That 5 minute penalty changed the face of the game.. just like the disallowed goal did. All in all you can't blame refs for losing a series.. usually the team who wants it more wins.
