This probably wasn’t the most dignified way for the Caps to wind up tying their playoff game last night:
Note the guy that falls over: He took a direct hit to the family jewels with the puck, and now the poor bastard might wind up minus one of them.
Yow. Even being a Caps fan, I’m not sure that play shouldn’t have been blown dead before Mike Green scored. I think it happened too fast for the refs to realize what had happened, but still, sucks for the Flyers.
Thanks(?) to Deadspin for the tip.
yes. yes it does.
Ow. Just, ow. But, like the legions of people who remember Bartman and other one play wonders, those were events that could have easily been dealt with by, I dunno, stopping the puck, Mr. FLyers Goalie Who Saw The Puck And Got Screened By His Own D-Men.
Still can’t root for the Caps, though.
