The kicker in that (no pun intended) was that puck looked to be going in anyway

 

[Filip Chytil]

I thought he blatantly moved his foot so as to intentionally direct the puck in. Way more “distinct” of a kick than this Coleman goal. That one stood.

If that's a goal then Calgary got robbed lol

@Filip Chytil Is Pidto still working the MSG pre- and post-games?

 

[Boris Zubov]

So did I, but if that’s not a kick, than how IS this? Different rule book in the playoffs. If that had been against us it stands. If we scored it, it’s turned back. Which isn’t NHL bias, but is the fate of anyone stupid enough to be a devoted Rangers fan.

I thought Coleman tried to disguise his stopping motion when he was really trying to nudge the puck over the line, which is why I called it a kick.

The team talking about it during intermission is literally contradicting the rule itself. It was called a good goal. Has to be decisive to overturn. Isn’t “distinct”. The NHL makes it up as they go.

Yeah but apparently you CAN redirect the puck with your skate, you just can’t “kick” it.

Not sure actually

Not sure actually

Did y'all just get the Kicker Ball commercial? WTF?

 

[Filip Chytil]

The fact that some say kick, some say it was a good goal means the call on the ice should've stood. I'm fine with overturning it if it was beyond obvious. But it wasn't, so the call on the ice should've stood imo

 

[Boris Zubov]

Yeah but apparently you CAN redirect the puck with your skate, you just can’t “kick” it.

That's the current rule, but I never liked when they changed it to allow for redirections while moving or repositioning your skate.

 

[LokiDog]

Yeah… I’m not sure what that is. Do you wanna not get good at soccer and just be able to do this shit anyway? That’s like if they made a puck that goes 100 mph even if you only have a 60 mph shot.

The Great One. I feel like I'm letting him down!

 

[will1066]

I die laughing every time they roll that footage of Lucic

 

[LokiDog]

Same, I didn’t even realize when they did it and hated goals that were called good, but the precedent has been set. How do you overturn a good goal from what we saw?

 

[will1066]

Yeah… I’m not sure what that is. Do you wanna not get good at soccer and just be able to do this shit anyway? That’s like if they made a puck that goes 100 mph even if you only have a 60 mph shot.

Yeah. How about learning the skill of kicking a ball to curve?

Very scientific breakdown of you.

 

[LokiDog]

Right? It’s like… the opposite of a training tool. Like if they made a soccer ball that was heavier or harder to curve so you could master curving the ball, that would make sense. This is the opposite. I could see EdJovanovski liking something like this. Do you wanna do trick shots like the Michigan but not have to actually stick handle the puck??! Here you go!

 

[Boris Zubov]

Very scientific breakdown of you.

Very smarmy reply from you

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Oilers got the Penguins treatment there.

I had ZERO issue with the goal that got reversed for us tonight (right call.) I'd be livid if I were Calgary, that shit was worse than the one that got called back in game 1 vs Pittsburgh.

 

[LokiDog]

Those aren’t boos Joe, they’re Luc’s

McJesus strikes

 

[will1066]

wow

 

[Boris Zubov]

MCJESUS

 

[I Eat Crow]

...and there goes my pick to win it all.

McDavid is just on another level man.
