GDT: 12/6/23 - 7:00PM EDT - Pittsburgh vs Tampa Bay

[Master P]

Worst rule in hockey strikes again.

 

[DrMartinVanNostrand]

Cirelli even touched the puck while the puck was on the blue line (reverse angle showed it), that's absolutely ridiculous.

 

[BoltsFanSinceDay1]

gotta be kidding me

 

[Stammertime91]

Yeah idk what yall saw but that was off...

He literally put both skates over before the puck entered.

Back to shitting on him. 6M and he doesn't know what offside is?

 

[JFleegs]

That is a crock of shit call

 

[JoVel]

I don't know what to think of that to be honest. I'm not going to pretend as if I know the rules. Lol

 

[The Macho King]

Right call - was basically a pass.

He had control of the puck you can do that

That's not the rule - he can precede the puck with control.

The issue is he had basically passed it but it was close.

 

[Stammertime91]

We already knew you were a casual.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Looks like the league doesn't care about knee on knee's anymore

 

[Stammertime91]

Is that not still deemed control though?

Edit: nevermind.

 

[Hoek]

Love when the refs just make up shit and don't even follow their own damn rules

 

[JoVel]

We already knew you were a casual.

I've always been a shitposter first, hockey fan second.

 

[JFleegs]

He had control head down puck was within his reach. Point did the same shit at an earlier game and it was a good goal then and it’s a good goal now.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Is that not still deemed control though?

It is not. If Cirelli went for the puck instead of going for Letang's stick. They would probably have called it a good goal

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

You can thank Mr. Sullivan for the penalty against for failed challenges being implemented.

He abused the shit out of offsides challenges in their 2017 cup run.

 

[Ducati Boy]

I think the rules state that your name has to be Cale Makar for that goal to count.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Honestly, the league could easily solve this shit by just having the ref explain in like 15 seconds why they made the decision they did. We won't have to agree, but at least we would know where they are coming from.

And they call that, but none of the other things that Pittsburgh did in the last 3 minutes?

 

[JFleegs]

Refs letting multiple trips go until this one lmao

 

[Frenchy]

the fix is in boys, first a no goal and now a questionnable penality

 

[Stammertime91]

In the end I would've called it offside but I missed the memo on why. That automatically makes me eligible to be a ref. Call it, have no idea why.

 

[Frenchy]

good kill

 

[These Are The Days]

We need to score again

They beta-tested this for a short period, for some reason it didn't stick.
