Bullshit is being up 2-1, then 3-1 and looking like you don't give a damn anymore. That you're totally cool getting outshot 16 to 5 in the second period. That up 3-2 is just fine and dandy for you because you're totally cool watching your goalie, who really looks like he cares, stand on his head for you while you coast around.
Bullshit is Cammalleri refusing to take the body or even skate a bit harder for the puck along the boards then completely overskating it by 50 feet and allowing the other team to score.
Bullshit is that fucking powerplay that I will rename Einstein's Insanity Play. And on the EIP, you get OUTSHOT.
Bullshit is dickhead fans still making jokes like it's real funny Pacioretty was millimeters away from being paralyzed, or dead. On this play, it could go either way. By Shanaban's reasoning (and I'm basing it from HIS examples for a completely subjective view here) from all previous videos, Letang suddenly leans into his shot, Pacioretty isn't targeting his head. Has no intention to do so. But because Letang leans over, Pacioretty's shoulder catches him and breaks Letang's nose. There was no penalty on the play because it wasn't a headshot, it wasn't an elbow, it wasn't even interference. It was basically a smaller man suddenly finding himself walking into a bigger man. Of course all Pens fans think they know hockey and are screaming bloody murder. The fans of the very team with Matt Cooke on the roster. Then again, Pacioretty wears the CH and it was against a Sainted Penguin, so what do you think will happen in this bullshit league...
Those same dickhead fans thought all those refused goals were actually good. Because you know you can score goals with your hands or can kick the goalie who made the save into the net. Totally legal.
But the biggest bullshit? Carey Price has the puck frozen FOREVER and the ref who is in the other corner behind him, clearly with zero view of the puck, allows play to continue. Results? Neal slaps it out of Price's glove, Letang (who did not go to a quiet room and was playing with a bloody jersey even though I'm sure these guys have spares) puts it in the net with zero opposition (obviously because everyone else clearly found the play stopped). And as Price is trying to get a reason for this, the refs run off the ice and disappear under whatever rock they came from.
When Don Cherry and other Bruins agrees with the Habs...
Marc Denis blabbles about him not having the puck while the video is running, showing Price holding the puck the ENTIRE TIME he's talking about it.
Bullshit. Facing 42 shots, making 38 saves, many highlight reel types...and the ref doesn't even have the decency to say "sorry man, I must have fallen asleep even though the whistle was slowly heading for my mouth but I do love that fat cheque Mario promised me".
Another game blown, this time with a who-gives-a-fuck-anymore loser point.

What's more frustrating? Someone should put this on the whiteboard in the Habs dressing room:
Cammalleri 0 goals, 0 assists, -2, 2 shots, 16:02 (3:45 on powerplay)
Plekanec 0 goals, 0 assists, -3, 1 shot, 19:34 (3:29 on powerplay, 3:24 shorthanded)
Gionta 0 goals, 0 assists, -4, 0 shots, 15:39 (3:02 on powerplay, 39s shorthanded)
Travis Moen's goal is listed as unassisted but technically Eller and AK46 should have gotten something, especially Eller. I told you Eller just needs his AK46 back...
