OMG you have some absolute garbage takes, Yes Gaucher got called earlier but the Mooseheads player didn’t oversell it the way the Remparts player did on that call, if anything they should have been called for embellishing. You shit on Dumais - have you ever had a slash to the knuckles? It fucking hurts!!! Says the guy spewing conspiracy theories...... 3 certainties in life 1) Death 2) Taxes 3) The QMJHL fucking over the Mooseheads It’s not a conspiracy theory if it’s true. But you chiming in reminds me it could be worse… at least the Mooseheads didn’t screw themselves by scoring on their own net!!

I think the idea that Rousseau should have had an interference call on Gaucher is a bit funny.
I've seen the kid cut to the net with defensemen hanging off him without breaking stride. There's nobody on the Mooseheads that seems to be even able to move him outside of Doucet and L'Heureux. I know he's maybe not expecting contact but Rousseau is 5'11" and 170 pounds soaking wet. That's a "stay on your skates" moment.
That actually does seem to be a big problem for Halifax in the finals, they're just younger and smaller than the Rempart. Say what you will about what could have been yesterday, but the Moose need to be able to physically punish the Rempart more and they simply can't do it. It's a 7 game series, and the Rempart are turning into a war of attrition that we're losing.
Hindsight is 20/20 but, I wish the Mooseheads would have sent out a pick or two to acquire some older, bigger players for the 4th line, because we're quickly running out of guys who can actually play. I don't care if they can score, just someone to take some minutes to let the big guns rest and maybe throw a hit and make the Rempart feel it as much as we are.

Even if it hurt him, it doesn’t excuse the fact that afterwards he stopped skating in the middle of the ice on a 3 on 2. Even if Bolduc had not scored, if Rousseau had given a rebound, Roy was all alone in front of an empty net and he could have scored easily because Dumais didn’t bother to backcheck. Dumais wasn't the problem on that goal. He would have never caught up to the play. The problem was the 2 Mooseheads defensemen went to the puck carrier and left the guy coming down the wing wide open. So many bad defense plays by Halifax in this series.

Many here disagree. It has been explained to me both viewpoints by supposed experts on TV or media. And both make sense. But control varies by what they want to accomplish. Control for a D is to swipe it a few feet to mess up a chance at a pass or shot. They do that all day. Control for a skater is take stride with it. This is why offsides reviews are so hard to tell these days. If that were a delayed penalty, the whistle would have been blown. It wasn't just a touch, he pushed the puck forward, it doesn't matter if the puck was chipped off his stick. He had control, period. Even if it was just for half a second, that's control. It was objectively the wrong call, and that hurts. I don't know if it cost us the game, but it certainly didn't help.

Still a mystery to me how Ben Boyd wasn't wearing a Mooseheads jersey this year.

Wasn't a big Boyd fan and didn't see his value previously but after watching these last two rounds he would have be a huge guy to have.

What is a hand pass? My understanding is an open hand pass of the puck in the neutral zone or offensive zone. Look at the video. Doucet's hands are on the stick at the moment of contact. Therefore no hand pass. No dispute about who touched the puck next or if they had control. Please let me know if I am wrong. 4 minute 40 second mark of the link below. theqmjhl.ca/gamecentre/30324/boxscore

Rule 10.2 Handling or Falling on the Puck
A player will be permitted to stop, knock down, or push the puck with their open hand. Play will not
be stopped unless the player has directed the puck to a teammate in the neutral or attacking zone
with the hand. No player, excluding the goaltender, may deliberately fall on the puck or gather the
puck into their body.
10.2 (a) Play will be stopped but a Minor penalty will NOT be assessed for a player who
commits a “hand pass” violation.
i. A hand pass occurs when a player stops, knocks down, or pushes the puck with
their open hand, thereby directing the puck to a teammate in the neutral or
attacking zone. This includes where the puck deflects off any person or object
prior to the teammate gaining possession and control of the puck.
ii. No goal may be scored as a result of a hand pass

Of course you think it's funny....you're a Moose fan. But the fact of the matter is that Rousseau intentionally stuck his arm and shoulder out to impede his progress. That's interference. If the other Rousseau does that, almost every Moose fan here would be screaming for an interference call.

Even if Bolduc had not scored, if Rousseau had given a rebound, Roy was all alone in front of an empty net and he could have scored easily because Dumais didn’t bother to backcheck. Dumais wasn't the problem on that goal. He would have never caught up to the play. The problem was the 2 Mooseheads defensemen went to the puck carrier and left the guy coming down the wing wide open. So many bad defense plays by Halifax in this series. Agree. Dumais didn't just "not backcheck", he reacted immediately to being slashed - he's been a classy player his whole career who rarely shows emotion. I believe him that the slash hurt him in that moment. But only a second after he reacted, he started skated back after the play, but there was no way he was catching any of them. It sucks that there was no call, and that Dumais turned the puck over on it. But the goal didn't happen because Dumais was busy trying to "sell" a call and didn't back check. He reacted naturally, then almost immediately tried to get back in the play with the energy he had left on the shift. Again though - these are the hard games/series to lose, because we can break down every chance or missed call and blame someone. It's easier to accept games like game 1, where you just feel you were clearly the worst team. We could be up 3 games to 1. That burnnnnnns. I felt the moose had numerous quality chances to score in the third, but couldn't finish them. Quebec finally caught on to the back door feeds to Doucet+Co and did a great job intercepting those plays. Quebec are bigger, older and healthy. I think we've played them really well considering our very young defense core and the injuries on top of that. Who knows what could have been if we were truly healthy.

By the book it might be but, there's a lot of things that are interference by the book that aren't called, especially in the playoffs.

He wasn't on the ice nearly as much last night and was shaken up in game 3's OT loss.
