"The parody of the call is that if they had called the guardian interference [without a minor penalty]We could have challenged him, "said DeBoer after the 5-3 win at the Golden Knights, beating their series 1-1 as the game unfolded Sunday in Las Vegas. gave us a goal, and we would have been 4-3. It's a different game. Instead, it's a two-goal swing. "

There were two points of contention on the play. The first considered the purpose refused. The Sharks claimed that Fleury had moved out of her blue fold and "in the blank", and that any contact with him was not intentional on the part of contact with Vegas defender Brayden McNabb.

"Difficult call," said Couture. "Being involved in that, I thought it was outside the fold.I thought Fleury had met me a bit, but I should watch the retransmission about it." McNabb touched me. "

When asked what the referees told him, Couture said, "He said that I hit him, that I hit him and that no one touched me, I entered myself. I have not seen the recovery, you will have to tell me because I did not see it. "

DeBoer saw the game and disagreed.

"The problem I have with that is that he's entitled to this ice cream, and because Fleury is outside the crease and [Couture] Just go in this area, there is no intention of running in Fleury, "said DeBoer.

There was also the penalty for goalkeeper interference, which requires more than just momentum to gain two minutes in the penalty area. Vegas coach Gerard Gallant, who described the move as "awesome", felt that Couture had dealt a blow to Fleury's head.

"It was definitely the right choice. He hit him in the head. He tries to play the puck, he defends his goal and the guy skates through the blue paint and hits him in the head. For me, it's pretty obvious, "he said. "I do not know what they say there."

This is what Sharks winger Evander Kane said in the San Jose locker room: Fleury's ornaments were called.

"I know they're complaining a lot about Fleury and the traffic in front.When you extend the blue paint a few extra feet, it's very difficult for the opposition to stay away from it." when he's fighting the D men ahead, "he says. "It's a very good reaction from him, he trapped them."
