Juantimer, no one is saying it wasn't TECHNICALLY a legal change. That's what the Org was able to twist. Clowe got lucky that what he did HAPPENED to be a legal change.
No there is no twist to be made. Watch the ******* video, it shows it clear as day. There is no luck involved because if this happens away from the bench Clowe doesn't get on at all.
The door to get off wasn't even open by the time Clowe was in the altercation. However, it looks like Pavs is coming off because of where he was. I see why they said it was a legal change but I know Clowe didn't care if it was legal or not. He loses his mind at times and doesn't care if things are legal or not. I'm pretty sure that when Clowe cooled down and looked at the play he saw how stupid it was. You have to think he knew what he was doing wasn't legal. All he cared about was getting at Shaw.
No, no, no. The door being open or not means nothing. Pavs looked like he was going off because he was skating the opposite direction of the puck towards the door, which is an open-and-shut case.
Clowe obviously intended it to be a legal substitution because he didn't get on until Shaw was practically back at his bench. He could have gotten on earlier but waited until it was legal to.
