ALLEN PARK, Mich. - The disputed call in the fourth quarter of Detroits playoff loss at Dallas was not subject to a replay review.Lions coach Jim Caldwell wonders if its time to change that.I think without question it was probably not officiated correctly in my estimation, Caldwell said Monday, a day after Detroits 24-20 loss. Nevertheless, I do think in this day and age, with modern times where we have technology that can take out the human factor in certain key situations in big games, that we should use that technology to do so.With the Lions up 20-17 and in Dallas territory, referee Pete Morelli initially announced a pass interference penalty on Cowboys linebacker Anthony Hitchens. Then officials reversed themselves, leaving Detroit facing fourth down.The Lions punted, and Dallas drove for the winning touchdown.Im angry about it, and trying to keep my composure here, but Im probably angry for our team, and the fans, Caldwell said. Thats the thing that stirs your blood.Coaches arent allowed to signal for replay reviews of potential pass interference calls, but Caldwell indicated Monday hed like to see the league allow more reviews if possible.For the sake of time, and those kinds of things in a game ... you have to have some boundaries, Caldwell said. I do think that particularly in big games and down the stretch, and playoffs, and things of that nature, Im not certain there should be a limit on when you can review.Caldwell said the league reached out to him after the game, although he did not say what was discussed.Dean Blandino, the leagues director of officials, told The Associated Press on Monday that there have been proposals to expand the use of replay reviews for personal fouls. There also have been proposals to allow coaches to challenge any call.The history always has been ever since the first iteration of replay is that we were dealing with fact and not judgment, he said. Subjective calls ... that was something the competition committee felt should not be part of replay and that has been the guideline ever since.Recently there has been more conversation about adding some of those subjective calls to reviewable plays with the technology we have now. On the play Sunday, Morelli said the head linesman believed there wasnt enough contact for a penalty, so none was called even though the back judge had thrown a flag.I just think that were all human and were all affected by our surroundings, environment, big game, issues, noise, etc., Caldwell said. Its going to be hard for anybody to convince me otherwise, and I think in that particular case we should try to take as much of the human factor out as we possibly can.The Lions punted after the sequence, and the Cowboys drove to the winning touchdown late in the fourth quarter.I want to be really respectful about this answer, Dallas coach Jason Garrett said Monday. Were talking about the wrong stuff. Were talking about officiating after a game. I would like to think that I would say that when the call goes against us, and certainly want to say it when the call goes for us. Theres a lot of calls in a game that impact the game and we never really try to get caught up with those as coaches and players.___AP Pro Football Writer Barry Wilner and Sports Writer Schuyler Dixon contributed to this story.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Ben Gamel Jersey .

Chris Capuano Brewers Jersey .Y. -- Kristen Gillman rallied to win the U. MONTREAL -- Playing against one of the top NHL teams brought out the best in the Canadiens. Montreal limited the Blackhawks, the leagues most potent offence, to only 20 shots on net in its 2-1 overtime victory over Chicago. Chicago entered the Bell Centre with a league-best 165 goals scored this season, an average of 3.58 goals-per-game. Four of the leagues 15 best point-getters -- Patrick Kane, Patrick Sharp, Jonathan Toews and Duncan Keith -- play for the Blackhawks. The Canadiens shut them down on Saturday. "Thats what we wanted to do coming in," said Habs captain Brian Gionta. "They have a lot of offensive power, obviously, that you need to be aware of. We did a good job of handling them." Giontas line frustrated Chicagos big names all night. Keith and Kane were kept off the scoreboard, while Toews and Sharp were kept to a shot and an assist apiece. "It was a good test for us," said Gionta. "We responded right off the bat. We gave them the respect, but not too much. We played them hard, we knew what to expect, we came in with a game plan and stuck with it." The Canadiens outshot the Blackhawks 38-20, and delivered twice as many hits. Andrei Markov, who scored both goals for Montreal, including one in overtime, thought his team played their best game of the season. "Every time we play against a team like Chicago thats high in the standings, its a big challenge," said Markov. "And we responded well." The Blackhawks are currently in third place in the Western Conference. Markov took a deflected pass from Max Pacioretty and found the roof of the net at 1:28 of overtime to beat Montreal native Corey Crawford and secure the victory for the Canadiens. "We have to continue the same way," added Markov, who claimed he closed his eyes as he fired home his game-winner. "Thats our game. We have to try to play that game every night. If you play hard every game like tonight, success will be on your side." Crawford was otherwise outstanding in net for the Blackhawks (29-8-10), stopping 36-of-38 shots he faced in the loss. The 29-year-old missed nearly a month of play with a lower-body injury and is winless (0-1-3) since his return. But Crawford made key saves in the first period to preserve the scoreless draw after Chicago ran into penalty trouble, and made a freakish save at the end of the second to keep the deficit at one. Wiith P.ddddddddddddK. Subban in the box for delay of game, a sprawled-out, stickless Crawford robbed Lars Eller from close range with the blade of his skate. "It was a great play," said head coach Joel Quenneville of his goaltenders spectacular save. "He stayed with it. He held his ground well, made a nice skate save. Whatever you want to call what he did ... it was nice to see." After a few close calls by the Blackhawks to start the second, including Sharp missing an open net high and wide, and Kane hitting the crossbar, Markov broke the deadlock at 12:54 for his fourth of the year. With six-foot-five Habs enforcer George Parros screening him, Crawford couldnt react quickly enough when Markovs wrist shot flew past his blocker. "I dont think so, I dont think so," repeated Parros when asked if he got his stick on it. "I wish it did. I knew I had a good screen on the goalie, so I just wanted to let it go through me and see what would happen." Parros has often been left out of the Canadiens lineup. He suffered two concussions this season, and only dressed in 10 games. He finished the game with a shot on net and a plus-1 rating. "Ive been looking for some positivity this year and I finally got some there," said Parros. "It was good to be part of a goal to help our team." Chicago found their equalizer at 9:22 of the third when Marian Hossa deflected Toews pass over Carey Prices outstretched pads. Sharp also got an assist on the goal. Bryan Bickell hit the post to Prices left with just over a minute to play in the third period before the game was sent to overtime. Price finished with 19 saves as Montreal improved to 26-15-5. "If you looked at statistics before the game, the advantage went to the Blackhawks," said head coach Michel Therrien. "But statistics are in the past. What matters to us is tonights game. We can control the present. We can focus on the present." The Canadiens have now won six in a row against the Blackhawks as the host team. Chicagos last win in Montreal was on Dec. 3, 2001. Notes: The Blackhawks had a 10-game point streak snapped after a 3-2 loss to the New York Rangers on Wednesday. a Parros returned to the lineup while defenceman Francis Bouillon was a healthy scratch. a The Canadiens are in fourth place in the Eastern Conference. a Montreal and Chicago face off again on April 9 in Chicago.
