Literally knocked it into their own net while they had their goalie pulled on a delayed penalty.

And the night ended with EMT's taking some dude out of the stands on a stretcher.

Tonight was chaos.

I don't get how that happened. I presume the guy who put it into his own net was the extra man but why was he skating in the opposite direction swinging his stick towards a puck there. I know it's just the AHL (I actually subbed to this service once as a quasi joke during a nhl lockout man that was stupidly expensive) but I wish they had some more replays/angles.

That's how I imagine the Leafs losing game 7 in overtime of the Stanley Cup finals if they ever make it.

Extra man never touched it, the d-man whiffed on it and the extra man couldn't catch up to it.

And i'm not gonna complain about it being "Only" the AHL, for like, $25 i get to sit behind the bench in a very comfortable arena.

TC you from Milwaukee? I remember going to an Admirals game back when I was a kid.

looks like just a failed keep in that was headed in the worst possible direction. i don't think the guy at center ice ever gets close to it.

my favorite dumb goal will always be Roy's failed statue of liberty.

Yeah I suck at figuring out/seeing things, oft times. I blew that up and looked at it again. I guess the commentator saying it "deflected in" confused me too. A friend of mine went to an Amerks game when he lived here and said it was awesome sat right behind the glass for cheap.

Yep, live less than 5 minutes from the arena, and tickets are usually cheap.
