what can you do, they only call it one way
Honestly, I don't think they would have called it on Ruutu if they puck hadn't gone in.

I don't know if that's true, but I don't think it should be. Outcome shouldn't have any bearing on whether it was a penalty or not.

Agreed, but the rule book doesn't say : if it's a goal a penalty should be given, but if it's not let it go.
All I want is consistency.

I agree, but it does. If he was going to call it a penalty regardless of the outcome, the whistle would have come a lot sooner.
I also thought Ruutu interfered with the defender, not Lehtonen.

It's a young team. They haven't learned to play differently to protect the lead yet.

But that's impossible. That might suggest that horrible, mental coach of the Pens had the right idea by talking to Malkin...
