Moulson, on his kick
Here's what Matt Moulson said after the game about his second-period goal being overturned by video replay, after it was determined that he kicked the puck into the net...
``I think I got it with my skate. I thought maybe I got a piece of it with my stick after, but I guess not. It clearly went off my foot, but I was just trying to kick it to my stick and jam away at it. I was hoping they would say it maybe went off my stick afterward.''
Moulson talked about the disappointment of having two goals disallowed and losing by one...
``We had a lot of pressure there and we were playing well. It's a real hit there, to have two goals disallowed, but we had a solid team effort tonight. We have to keep bringing that determination and compete level to the next game against Anaheim.''

Not like the AHL is it.
Matt's got to learn to abuse the crap officials in the league a little better. Get in that officials face and scream to high heaven that you kicked it onto your stick, man.
Boy, JDM said it. Officiating in the NHL has really taken a dump in the past 10 years. Awful.
By the way, has the no skate in the crease rule been re-instituted? Brown's interference is only explainable if that's the case.
Did Mick McGeough come out of retirement and ref this game in disguise??? If not...we just found his heirs...
