Islanders blast ‘f–king embarrassing’ late call in loss that could haunt them in tight playoff race
NY Post
All year long, the Islanders have been vexed by the way goaltender interference is called.
On Monday night, they were furious.
On Monday night, they saw a regulation win turn into a shootout loss on one of the most questionable calls of the season, as Kyle Palmieri’s game-winner with 8.9 seconds left in regulation was waved off — giving way to a 4-3 Blue Jackets victory in the skills competition and a raging mad Islanders dressing room.
“I think it was f–king embarrassing,” Palmieri said. “Couldn’t disagree more with the call.”
“I don’t think anyone in this room agrees with this decision,” Alexander Romanov told The Post.
Coach Patrick Roy went as far as to call the NHL’s situation room in Toronto “afraid” to overturn calls made on the ice.

They have already spoken. Soon enough, the Giants need their star wide receiver, Malik Nabers, and their new quarterback, Russell Wilson, to turn their words into action and exploits.

This is one of the lures, isn’t it? This is one of the reasons we keep coming back, even as the seasons seem to grow longer, because there are no scripts in sports (despite the occasional official/referee/umpire conspiracy theories that arise from time to time). There is no plan.
The Giants swung for the fences — and settled for a sacrifice fly.
