VIDEO: Islanders Head Coach Pissed Off Over Blown Too-Many-Men Call


The New York Islanders are going to have a hard enough time beating the Tampa Bay Lightning, they certainly don't need to be playing against the officials as well. On Tuesday night during Game 2 of their series, the refs/linesmen missed an obvious too-many-men penalty which then resulted in the Lightning scoring a go-ahead goal to make it 2-1. Needless to say Islanders head coach Barry Trotz was pissed. 

Trotz spoke after the game and admitted it was a tough pill to swallow:

The second goal hurt quite a bit. Obviously you guys know there was too many men on the ice there. They had seven guys

Tampa went on to win the game 4-2 and evened up the series 1-1. Game 3 goes Thursday night in New York.
