In what has been one of the most exciting opening rounds, the controversy in the Oilers and Kings series reached an all-time high in game three after a review in overtime.

After the back-and-forth game went into the extra frame tied 2-2, Edmonton forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins was called for slashing just over a minute in. With seconds remaining in the power play, Trevor Moore scored the game-winner to give LA a 2-1 series lead.

Or so he thought, as officials reviewed the play for a ''missed stoppage of play'' due to Kings forward Gabriel Vilardi potentially high-sticking the puck.

Did They Get it Right?

After over five minutes of the review, the officials deemed there wasn't conclusive evidence to overturn the call on the ice.

You be the judge.
