Game of inches!

The Toronto Maple Leafs fans wanted to be officials on Friday night, during Game 5 against the Florida Panthers in the second round series.
For a second, it looked like Morgan Rielly had tied up the game, but the official call was never made on the ice.
That’s because it was determined that the puck never crossed the goal line, and when it did, under the skate blade of goalie Sergei Bobrovsky it was after the whistle.
After the lengthy review, the officials explained that the call on the ice stood and that there was no goal. As former NHL goalie Martin Biron explained: "There was just no way to know, from the angles on TV, where the puck was exactly under Bob’s pad."
The crowd at the Scotiabank Arena was furious and started throwing debris on the ice, prompting the ice announcer to ask people to refrain from littering the rink.
Play resumed under chants of “Bullsh**t” in Toronto...
