GDT: Avalanche vs Stars, Round 2, Game 6, 5/17/24 @8:00PM MNT: I don't wanna golf yet!

[Bruce Granville]

Picked 2 ex Habs (Lehkonen is too obvious) lol

It will be an ugly goal or a PPG…so Lehkonen is a good bet.

 

[Terry Yake]

i don't see any way dallas wins this one. the league has already made up their mind as to who they want to win as evidenced by they overturned goal

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

I'm ready to start posting ban-worthy shit over that call

I have done it during the playoffs…….

 

[PromisedLand]

the great mysteries of the universe

1. what was before the big bang?
2. how were the egyptian pyramids built?
3. what is really quantum mechanics, dark energy and dark matter?
4. WTF is goalie interference in hockey?

 

[JimmyH]

Justification for that call is not supposed to be so complicated.

 

[Hire Sather]

Hank has a new watch every night

 

[Elysian]

Same thing happened in the Boston/Florida series Bennett push the defenseman into his goaltender and they counted the goal so it's no one knows what goaltender interference is now it's flipping a coin

Always had been

 

[bobholly39]

Avs end this quick in 2nd OT.

Rantanen with the winner. Or Drouin.

 

[M2Beezy]

Ok, double ot preddys:

Dallas: Robertson

Colorado: Makar

 

[albator71]

One thing is for certain for next year:

Goalie interference rules have to be completely over hauled and rewritten since like wtf

I agree they need to fix this because it's not a good look

 

[Avsfan1921]

Everyone questioning the Avs depth. Way deeper than Dallas, we even have the officials on our team!

 

[Bizzare]

“Guys don’t get paid in the playoffs” is one of the dumbest things that is constantly said.

 

[altjacobs1]

Makar pushed Duchene further into the crease, but I think he was already in the crease before the push. He was only in the crease by a slight margi, but it was directly where Georgiev was playing at the front of the crease and a reasonable argument can be made being in the crease impeded Georgiev’s ability to move freely within his crease to defend the net.

He was absolutely not already in the crease.

I usually pick Lehkonen during playoff OT but switched this time

Too true

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Getting out of that period was huge for Colorado. Chance to reset.

Here we go!

 

[S E P H]

Cause Makar pushed him though...

Are we allowed to push players into our own goaltender is the question this boils down to here...

I don't know I'm so lost as to what GI is at this point... Just decide a standard either way & lets go with it FFS.

Makar pushes him out of the way like all defenceman are trained to do, but Duchene drags Georgiev's stick away with his skates, making Alex fall over. That's interference fam. I am a goaler myself, you lot don't know how utterly important goaler sticks are for balance.

That bastard is so clutch.

 

[SnowStorm]

Dutchy had his chance

 

[kihei]

Henrik Lundvquist coping hard for the league

Someone is paying the man

He's an ex-goalie. Whose side do you think he is going to be on?

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Hank has a new watch every night

Clearly has the money for it. Gotta match the watches to the suit.

 

[Mubiki]

Because the goalie is not fair game...

Fair game implies they were the target of something. Duchene was facing the other direction and the goalie put his stick in between his legs. Goalies can get called for high sticking. Goalies can get called for slashing. Goalies can get called for tripping.

They are literally subject to the exact same stick infractions as everyone else. But for some reason in this one case he is suddenly not responsible for what his stick is doing? You are being intentionally obtuse, and it's a bad look. Stop it.

 

[DeathSniper]

Imagine if you could...*let go* of your goalie stick...to make a save

 

[Armourboy]

Duchene with his chance and Duchene'd it

 

[dhfa]

They should make a rule if a defender pushes the player into the goalie it's automatically a goal. Total BS. You can just push people into the goalie and all of a sudden goals can't be scored on you. I am not a fan of either team but denying that goal is denying reality.
