Colin Campbell steals a point from the Blue Jackets
The NHL's infamous War Room in Toronto has robbed the Columbus Blue Jackets of a point for the second time this season.
After a wild three periods in Dallas that saw a lot of fighting and mediocre goaltending, Columbus had twice erased two-goal deficits to force overtime. It was seconds into the extra session before Manny Malholtra took a pass and scored on a sprawling shot that glanced off of goalie Marty Turco, off of Malholtra's skate, and into the net.
A wild celebration ensued as Columbus won in OT for the second consecutive game. Or did they?
The War Room in Toronto, led by hifalutin Canadian douche bag Colin Campbell, decided to review the goal. No problem there. The problem was eight assholes deciding that Malholtra, who only had ONE skate on the ice, used "a distinct kicking motion" to put the puck in the net.
The Jackets have the league's worst power-play, have dealt with numerous injuries, and lack skill at center. This is probably enough to keep the team out of the Stanley Cup playoffs, but they certainly don't need any help from Campbell and his War Room nazis.
But they've been getting plenty of it anyway.
Michael Peca was suspended for touching an official while attempting to discuss one of many poor calls on opening night against the same Dallas Stars squad. The War Room waved the tying goal against the Minnesota Wild October 25, ruling that Rich Nash's stick was too high. With only 11 seconds left in regulation, it can be assumed that Columbus was robbed of at least one point in the standings. It should also be noted that Nash stands at 6 feet 4 inches, so that high stick bullshit doesn't hold water with us. Even Jacques Lemaire was surprised at the ruling handed down by the War Room nazis.
We won't even get into all of the premature whistles that stopped play on Thursday, all of which occured while Marty Turco struggled to gain possession of loose pucks.
Comments from Campbell to Aaron Portzline of the high-quality Puck-rakers blog:
“They’re adamant. They’re passionate. Look, every season there’s a club or two that, for whatever reason, has lots of tough calls go against them. They probably think the NHL is against them, too, but it’s not. It’s just not. We have very difficult calls to make, and we make them. It doesn’t matter who the player or the team is. We just make the call.”
“We watched it from numerous angles and at numerous different speeds. Before we make any ruling, we watch it one last time at regular speed. Sometimes we disagree on a call. But on this one we were unanimous that it wasn’t a goal. And there were eight of us in the booth.”
We cry bullshit, and warn Mr. Campbell to think twice before he sets foot in Columbus again. Things could get ugly at the hotel bar.
