Captain Cale.

Was imo cheated out of that disallowed goal, as that was never an interference on a goalie by Drouin. Sure, he had one leg in the goal crease, but was not impending goalie´s movement or somehow pushing him. I am pretty sure i have seen similar goals against us stand. Its fecking BS.

Nuke was much better last night than his first game back. With that said I don't expect him to be back to the elite player he was. If he does I will seriously believe he is back using the white powder. I do expect him to be good enough to help a lot in the top-6 though. It might take another game or two.

Watch Nuke from the first round last year against Winnipeg.

That was prime, cocaine fuelled Nuke. 45 second shifts of just terrorizing opponents defensively and absolutely steamrolling everybody offensively.

I'm a bit lost on that call as well. I've not read the whole thread, so forgive me if this was discussed.

Consistency is all I ask of NHL officials. By the letter of the law, Drouin interfered because he did not give the entirety of the crease to the goalie. That said, I have seen - this year alone - 4 reviews where that was not called Goaltender Interference. One was an Avs game, I think.

Frankly, I would prefer it to be called as it was on Drouin; Nobody ever goes in the blue ice at all, ever. It is a simple review. But the NHL is not enforcing that mandate consistently. So what was the issue last night? Was it the fact that both feet were in? The fact that the goalie pushed forward, initiating contact while Drouin was in the blue? Or did the officials decide that today was the day they would opt to follow the rule book for the first time all season?

I was ok with the GI call. Drouin was in the blue paint directly in front of the goalie so he did have an impact on the goal. If he was in the blue paint but to the side it would have been called a good goal.

I know some people are saying this half serious or even serious. That obviously because Nuke is clean now he sucks vs when he was all powdered up.

Let's wait a few weeks, he hasn't played since April lol.
