Now that itâs game 4, the league office has stepped in and instructed the officiating crew to start helping Vegas. Saw the same thing the last time these two teams met in the playoffs.
This is why I rarely come to this channel anymore. The comments are so unbelievably skewed against Vegas itâs actually insane. Sure they never mentioned the goal gifted to Minnesota on a blatant icing in the prior game. Or the fact that today Kolesar blatantly high sticked in OT , no call, but Minnesota GOT A POWERPLAY IN OT. And they couldnât score. But no. They ignore that. Itâs all a conspiracy to help Vegas . Just not enjoyable to come to a channel where literally every comment is shitting all over the team you root for and acting like theyâre cheaters. Itâs just not worth it . Bad for my mental health .
Iâd really love to have good conversations with Wild fans and commend them at how good Minnesota looks. Because they really do. They look great. Vegas is a great team and at times Minnesota has just entirely shut them down. Thatâs super impressive . But I just canât because everyone I run into is irrationally on insane rants about conspiracy theories and cheating and Iâm gonna stand up for the team I root for especially when I watch with my own eyes calls missed both ways. Absolute bullshit. And Shannonâs awesome so maybe I should just ignore the comments but itâs tough . Gotta be honest .
Wild fans are almost as bad as Stars fans…..almost
Minnesota sports teams getting hosed by refs, nothing new.
Comments here are just like Wild fans at the actual game. Stone gets high-sticked, bloodied, but fans boo at 4 mins penalty, because its INJUSTIFIED lol
Hartman was holding Hertl, and it can be easily seen on the replay. But no, Hartman has a reputation of an honest clean player, its clearly not the case, Who cares about video.
Wild fans didnt complain when Refs didnt call an icing in game 3 and Wild scored. Thats fine eh? Kolesar was highs ticked in OT. Clearly. No call. Why WIld fans dont complain about that??
Refs always been shit in PO. And will be. And they miss calls both ways.
Wild fans only see what is missed their way, which is of course every play.
Same goes for every other fan base
Weird how everyone is complaining about refs in this game but not about game 3, keep crying itâs playoff hockey. The Vegas hate is real đ
That stretch pass that was blown offsides was insides by a foot and took a breakaway from the wild. They looked back and it wasnât even close
6:27 the announcer team who you criticized, theyâre garbage. Always biased for Vegas. But yeah Panger is always non biased and great
The refs really sucked tonight. Blatant no calls. Iffy calls. Vegas had a lot of help tonight
The refs were awful in this game, and I'm a Blackhawks fan watching as a neutral. My friend told me that Vegas are the least penalised team since they've been in the league, don't know how true that is.
Vegas only had two penalties the whole game huh! đ riiiight!
After 2021, Vegas is NOT allowed to complain about refs haha
Hoes fatally furious
If I donât want to crash into my goalie I simply would not have put Hertl in a headlock, but maybe Iâm just built different
Very good game! If the Wild fight like they have been all series they will probably win. Go Wild! Some fans want Billy G to be fired because the Wild havenât gone passed the first round, but they are clearly a better team than Vegas and they can only spend 68 million when everyone else gets 83 million! Incredible, if you ask me! And that ends next year!
4:35 stretch pass to Braz was NOT offsides. It got called offsides. On the Wild's FanDuel Network, they showed the replay and it wasn't even close. It felt like the refs were cheering for Vegas.
Good lord… I watched this game as a neutral swedish canuck fan and you can't convince me the refs didn't try to do everything in their power to help Vegas win that one.
As a Minny fan I'm not very concerned tbh. Minny is one of the best away teams in the league, maybe the best. I think they can take this one
Vegas fans going to the bottom of the comments to get validation that this game was a fair win is hilarious
I'm a wild fan who only listens to the opposing teams' radio feed (because the wilds vox's suck a$$) and even THEY were saying vegas was getting away with penalties throughout the game!
It's pretty bad when your own broadcasters call it out.
Stars fan here. The officiating was abysmal this game. Yes there were some bad calls for Vegas, but the majority was against the Wild. Good lord.
I can appreciate your neutrality when it comes to refereeeing the games, and frankly understand why you use it.
However, its extremely frustrating when your team is obviously jobbed (on some, not all) and it is met with "fans called a penalty."
Feels snobby.
Big time Wild fan here, was at the game behind the net for the goal that was scored after Hartman was what should have been called an interference. Had to of been one of the worst missed calls Iâve seen. And I mean itâs the first example under interference in the NHLâs rule book.

Want to hear whinny Wild fans blame refs for losing, read on.
That was not an intentional offside. The pass originated from the Wild end and the player receiving the puck was offside. Therefore the faceoff is ruled from the point of the pass.
if anything that hertl tackle should have had the goal waived off and offsetting penalties there, not the goal counting and no calls. The last thing the league want is a wild team advancing without absolutely steam rolling opponents. They want Vegas to continue being a contender so they can prop them up in front of potential expansion/investors and tell them "look this could be you" As opposed to a middling team quietly moving along through the playoffs in one of the most solidified fan bases in the league.
This was a hard fought game. These teams match up more evenly than I would have expected. Of course, with Kaprizov and Erickson Ek back after both missing ~half the season, this definitely makes the Wild a much better team than they were over the past couple of months.
Vegas is just a tough all around team. They are excellent at holding the offensive zone, and don't make very many mistakes. Something the Wild need to get much better at. The Wild's D needs to do a much better job of holding the damn puck in the offensive zone. There was also a lot of sloppy passing at times by the Wild. They need to tighten up if they expect to move on in the playoffs.
