A really bizarre scene is going viral on the web and some Bruins fans are claiming that the NHL rigged the game
Let's be clear. We are absolutely convinced that this is just a simple glitch, but we must admit that it's a huge coincidence.
Yesterday, as you know, the Panthers were trailing 3-2 late in the game against Boston, and they pulled their goalie to add a sixth skater (to try to tie the game).
With a little over a minute left in regulation time, during the faceoff preceding the dramatic game-tying goal by the Panthers, there was a curious glitch on the TNT channel, the official NHL channel in the United States:
Indeed, the scoreboard suddenly displayed an animation indicating a goal scored by the Panthers, but it was before Brandon Montour tied the game.
As if they had announced the goal before it was counted.
Indeed, a few moments later, a few seconds after the TNT channel prematurely announced a goal scored by Florida, the Panthers tied the game 3-3.
Although this is simply a technical glitch, Bruins fans have shared the sequence on social media, claiming that the game was rigged.
The sequence is causing a lot of reactions, and we must admit that it's strange, but once again, let's remember that it's just a coincidence.
