I could be wrong about this, but it looks like O'Brien just lost his footing heading into the boards. I know Thorburn was right on his tail coming around the net and into the corner, but I'm not sure that should've even been called a penalty. I'll wait and see the replay.

First look seemed he was already falling before Throburn slammed him. Wonder if the replay will show differently.

2nd period. Case of road legs happening here. This many penalties is a sign of either being outworked or being lazy. Pens are feeling it now...gotta struggle through this, and help t-bound as much as possible. He'll make the first save, that's it!

Thorburn gets two because O'Brien doesn't know what he's doing out there. The refs really owe us one or two.

I personally think that a player willingly turning to the boards should be exempt from a boarding call, but that was boarding as it is.
I dont have a problem with any of the calls so far.
that last moore call was TICKY TAK...you have to admit that...

It's still a 2-2 game... if they can get out of the period with a tie, there's plenty of time to regroup and come out strong for the third. Hopefully they'll at least get a couple third period PP attempts.

I'm not saying O'Brien took a dive on that play. I'm just wondering why he wouldn't just continue around the boards when he knows Thorburn is on his back coming around that corner. Thorburn was doing everything he was supposed to be doing, and for whatever reason, O'Brien just decided to stop as if he was going to head back to the middle of the ice.
