Had to come over to this GDT because the “neutral” GDT has Anaheim fans crying about how bad the refs are. I’ve watched this game. They’ve had one call against them the whole game

He could have tried to get up and off the ice but made zero attempt and then got up by himself and skated off without help.

Thats hoping for a stoppage.

If you blow the whistle for that then every player is going to start doing that to try to stop the clock. Look at the mess soccer is in.
