Flopped? After Eakin cross-checked him he was shoved down again by Stastney.

Pavelski is one of the toughest players and I've never seen him flop. Players who flop don't crack their head on the ice because they couldn't brace themselves and leave the game bleeding and with a likely concussion. Watch the video again:

GRAPHIC VIDEO: Cross check knocks San Jose’s Joe Pavelski to the ice during Sharks’ OT win over Vegas

Barclay Goodrow’s goal with 1:41 remaining in overtime sent the San Jose Sharks into the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs on Tuesday night with a 5-4 win over the Vegas Golden Knights. But social media was buzzing about something that happened earlier in the game: a brutal high stick in the third period against San Jose’s Joe Pavelski.

Two points about Vegas Golden Knights and Sharks in Game 7 last night...

Well said.

4/24/19 8:05am

Flopped? After Eakin cross-checked him he was shoved down again by Stastney.

4/24/19 8:11am

I think he’s referring to the initial response to the cross check where Pavs

4/24/19 8:14am

The first reaction was not a flop either. Nearly every player loses their

4/24/19 8:16am

I know. Just not buying it because that's not the player Pavelski is. He was

4/24/19 8:16am

My friend from Canada was watching and called it a flop that turned sour

You sir are not being objective if you genuinely believe Pavelski flopped???

southbaycoug

4/24/19 8:15am

Consider the context of the play. Sharks are down 3-0, time running out on...

CougaReb

4/24/19 8:57am

Nope. Not a flop. Been watching him play for years.

southbaycoug

4/24/19 7:49pm

I’d put the blame for the loss at 30 percent refs 70 percent knights

Josef K

4/24/19 8:16am

I don't disagree with this at all. The Knights blew a 3-1 series lead and a....

CougaReb

4/24/19 8:52am

I thought I had seen every excuse until now, calling Pavelski a flopper?

JohnnyComeLately

4/24/19 8:21am

Seriously. What a bad take by the OP.

4/24/19 8:58am

Eakin's goal made it 2-0.

4/24/19 9:08am

Yep, that was a typo. It was 3-0 when the penalty happened. Regardless, that

4/24/19 9:11am

I said this last night, but the NHL really needs to put cameras in the glass

4/24/19 9:13am

I said it would come back based on two of the replay angles, but the one from

4/24/19 9:16am

There's no blood on the ice if Pavs didn't get hit in the mouth in game 1.

4/24/19 9:15am

I’m no Pavelski fan, but he didn’t flop there

The Chelsea Dagger

4/24/19 9:02am

This person says that by rule, a cross-check that results in injury is a major

4/24/19 8:23am

Wrong. He’s quoting USA hockey rule not the NHL.

4/24/19 8:25am

This is not true. Here's the NHL Rulebook definition. Note the distinction...

CougaReb

4/24/19 9:17am

Die Hard VGK fan...and you are wrong. He did not flop, (maybe flailed a bit)

Tweege

4/24/19 8:29am

4 min double minor based on blood would have been better call IMO.

JohnnyComeLately

4/24/19 8:32am

I've never heard of a "double minor." In those cases, does one of the minor

StarMan

4/24/19 8:36am

It looks like Pistol Shrimp answers my question below. Thx

StarMan

4/24/19 8:38am

It’s conceptually 2 2-min minors in a row. If a goal is scored during the first

The Chelsea Dagger

4/24/19 8:51am

This would have been the right call. At most would have resulted in 2 goals even

4/24/19 8:37am

Yep, 2 goals and momentum. Maybe sharks get the third who knows.

JohnnyComeLately

4/24/19 8:50am

As I’ve said in other threads, 4-min double minor would be my preferred call

The Chelsea Dagger

4/24/19 8:54am

They would have to call a high stick in that case, because cross-checking

The Chelsea Dagger

4/24/19 8:38am

Well they did tell Gallant it was a stick to the head, so maybe they should have

4/24/19 8:42am

Yeah refs believed it was a cross check to the face that caused the injury.

JohnnyComeLately

4/24/19 8:48am

In real time, unfortunately, the refs didn't see it. Watch the ref's head after

4/24/19 8:53am

That’s the linesman he can’t call penalties.

JohnnyComeLately

4/24/19 8:58am

Right, but none of the refs called it real time, and it was only after they

4/24/19 9:08am

The guy next to the play doesn't have the ability to call a penalty regardless.

JohnnyComeLately

4/24/19 9:46am

I'm sorry the Flames lost, too, but I don't know that you can really compare the

4/24/19 9:57am

You cant compare the Pavelski penalty with the Saints and Rams no call.

JohnnyComeLately

4/24/19 10:05am

Also, if they see something they believe to be a major, they are required

The Chelsea Dagger

4/24/19 9:13am

I'm not saying that he simply jumped up and landed on his head on purpose; I...

CougaReb

4/24/19 9:03am

Not a Knights or Sharks fan, but I don’t think Pavelski flopped.

HomeTownHero

4/24/19 8:32am

Again, I'm not saying he just flopped to the ground on purpose, but I do think..

CougaReb

4/24/19 9:06am

You should just stop trying bro. He didn’t flop.

southbaycoug

4/24/19 7:57pm

I agree it was a weak call... but you don't have to melt down and allow 4 pts!

(Private)

4/24/19 8:35am

Agree on all counts. Unfortunate/incorrect call followed by inspired Sharks'...

CougaReb

4/24/19 9:23am

Sirius NHL talk shows this morning (Ch. 91) were very upset about the call.

(Private)

4/24/19 10:15am

He didn't flop, but it also wasn't a dirty play. Just an accident. It happens.

4/24/19 9:40am

As i sharks fan i can admit it was a bad call. But a flop is hilarious and

4/24/19 1:37pm

They have replay, just not for penalties. Only goaltender interference, high

4/24/19 1:40pm

sorry I meant for situations like this haha. i'll edit. Agreed on the penalty

4/24/19 1:41pm

No worries. I feel the same way about replay actually. Posted it last night
