That totally should have been a penalty, it was blatant. In my opinion they should have called the game a lot tighter on both sides. For instance the Wilson hit on Marchessault, that's absurd a linesman had to make that call.
It was a really good, fast game. For me it was a bit ruined by all the no calls and liberties players were taking. You can't have a season of the "new NHL" then turn around and have the Finals be the "old NHL."

Do you think that should have been a penalty on Reaves?
yes I do but I also think there should've been 3 or 4 other penalties on both teams. every other series has had a handful of penalties that have been missed/not called. hell, Smith-Pelly should've been called for deliberately shooting his broken skate fender at the VGK defender who made that awesome pass on the GWG. I realize that the missed cross check led directly to a goal but you don't lose a game or a 7 game series because one penalty went uncalled. Washington had plenty of chances to score and didn't do it.
always looking for non Reebok L & XL shells......

In this instance, you're talking about the difference between the game now being tied, vs the Caps up by 1 and going on a power play. One missed call did influence this game in a big way.
