Instead of addressing our shortcomings....

If we address the shortcomings, we get our of the East

I hate that review honestly, totally didn't affect the play. There are other things in the game I'd rather see reviewable than this.

there are so few egregious offsides calls that warrant review. really isnt in the spirit of an offsides rule to be reviewing something thats millimeters off. especially when a defender isnt stepping up to cause the offside.

Classic unintended consequences situation after they created the rule

This call is the number one most frequently missed in the whole sport. I just can't be sure that any goal is a good goal anymore when it goes in.

It takes enjoyment away from the fans.

That & the fact that offside was obviously intended to keep guys from hanging in the zone...What they're doing isn't really in the spirit of the rule. It's like a bang bang play at second base as opposed to the neighborhood play when the 2nd baseman is 2 feet away from the bag.

Draft two generational talents?! Well but of course.

Easy peasy if you're Edmonton or Pittsburgh

I think this is a worse problem in association football but overall I agree. Offsides is not meant to be called at the micron level in dynamic sports like soccer and hockey. Technically the right call but it had zero affect on the play.

Edmonton winning would also be devastating to Toronto, not to mention Calgary, so that's another plus.

 

[Black Aces]

Maurice busy throwing tantrums now instead of telling jokes

 

[Synergy27]

Yo where is @EdJovanovski ?

 

[Captain Lindy]

We can never have that for some reason.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Florida is cooked, they’re not winning this game

 

[EdJovanovski]

Yo where is @EdJovanovski ?

Rigged!

That Sharks uniform in the Geico commercial is better than the real Sharks uniform

It affects that play if a player is in the zone before the puck. It's pretty cut and dried.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

You mean a reason like our fanbase won't abandon the team no matter how mediocre they are?

 

[gabevh3]

Hey Kakko is gonna break out any season now! Lisa Andersson and Krapsoft too!

We never drafted anything Generational

 

[bleedblue94]

I don't care about that call, I care that offsides review is just a bad thing in general. It needs to go away already.

 

[will1066]

Remember Knob coached that one game for us due to Covid Gerard and we won like 7-1 in the middle of stretch where we couldn't score for shit, and Knob was instantly banished to Hartford, never to be mentioned again?

Yeah, I remember that.

 

[gabevh3]

Did they Also call the nyr lethargic?

You're being disengenous here. The millimeter Reinhart was ahead of the puck had zero effect on that goal.

That was covid Quint. From Jaws.

Rangers had the second and first picks in back to back drafts. Kakko busted and Laf is on his way to becoming a star. Generational no but thems the breaks.

He’s got two of the best players in the league on this team, let’s not get crazy lol

We're still a generational C away from a true Cup contender.

 

[CasusBelli]

That’s quite the dive, that is.

I remember the Islanders won their first Cup on an off-side goal. It traumatized me. LOL
