Come from behind win, held onto 3rd period lead, despite refs robbing us of ENG. Moved up to #10 PWR. Now must finish the job and spring forward into the next round.

Fortunately, the Michigan player (Brindley?) was offscreen until well after the puck crossed the blue line.  Honestly,  my real time reaction was "he's quite far past the line" when the camera showed him receiving the puck.

I'm not complaining :), but is there no other camera angle?  Maybe not from the other side and the other angles missed it too?

2-1 feels like the right result.  We were better but not way better and really didn't do a ton on that major.  Great to start with nearly full PP on clean ice.  Third goal would be a big f'ing deal.

Bleed - thanks for the awesome updates. Will be ‘watching’ the game with your game posts (not able to listen). Sounds like a tumultuous end to the first period for ND. You love to see it.

You're welcome. Disappointing early goal - Barzo got beat high. But we battled back, and - surprise! - didn't get screwed by a couple of reviews.

I missed posting that Moldenhauer skated in hard on net, got poke checked, puck popped up, he grabbed it on the other side of the crease, but shot into the side of the net.
