Size matters to Claude Julien.

The Boston Bruins head coach challenged the ruling on the ice after Wayne Simmonds' third-period, game-tying goal Tuesday in Philadelphia, believing Michael Del Zotto was offside at the onset of the play.

The goal, however, was upheld due to inconclusive evidence to the contrary, and in Julien's estimation, the size of the tablets used to review the play is insufficient.

Here's a look at the play in question:

"The response" that Julien was referring to was a goal scored by Brett Connolly six minutes later that held up as the game-winner.

Still, it probably won't change his view that the officials need a better look at challenged plays in the future.
