Hopefully this was the worst call of the Stanley Cup playoff

We've seen the worst call of Stanley Cup playoffs, and somehow, .

Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford left his crease to wail on St. Louis' Robby Fabbri. The end result, in defiance of all available logic, was a Chicago Ha-Seong Kim Jersey power play and, naturally, a Chicago power-play goal.

The Blackhawks scored to make it 2-1 because Kevin Shattenkirk andAlex Pietrangelo were Carlos Asuaje Jersey in the box for whatever they did during the scrum that came after Crawford bull-rushed Fabbri.Fabbri was, too, and hedidn't even do anything. If anything, he was tripped. Crawford Yu Darvish Jersey , meanwhile, got two minutes for roughing, as did Andrew Ladd.

The recipe is set; if Chicago needs a goal, it can just have Crawford flip out. If he does enough, maybe it get a 5-on-3. Why not?

It's a Brad Hand Jersey bad look in a series that had already seen a controversial Blues lo s and some semi-deserved carpingfrom Matt Szczur Jersey Ken Hitchcock. Whatever he says after this will be even more justified.

And really, it's tough to imagine a dumber situation unfolding at any point during the postseason at least all the coach's challenge i sues comes from Clayton Richard Jersey a place of genuine desire to get thingscorrect. The i sue there is subpar technology and, maybe, nitpicking.

This, though? This was just stupid. And though it's hard to imagine anything stupider, remember;the first round isn't over.
