GDT: Game 51/82 Blues Vs Nucks 6:30PM CST FDSNMW

Binnington has a save percentage of .900 or better in 17 of 36 games (44.7%) this season. Hofer has a save percentage of .900 or better in 11 of 17 games (64.7%; pending outcome of this game) this season. There are plenty of places to point fingers this season but that is simply not good enough.

I agree, I am one of Binnington's biggest supporters but he has not been good this year. He has routinely been off his angles game after game.
 
It really wasn't that bad. People just don't understand the way it's called well because there's a lot of borderline ones. This one didn't matter because Halloway skated directly through the crease.

Hughes engaged him before he went to crease. Holloway was on path to not even contact the goalie til the push by Hughes. Look at my screenshots I posted.

That doesn't matter. His path was going through the crease whether Hughes engaged or not. Any contact with the goalie at that point gets calls as incidental GI even if the defender pushes you into the goalie.
 
Well at least the teasing is over. Army can go into the 4 Nations break knowing we're sellers, even if we don't have attractive vet pieces to deal.

He was going to avoid the goalie even if he went through the crease on his path til Hughes shoved him and forced him into the goalie.

That's where the rule is wrong IMO. It should be based on your path before the players engaged.

Sunny. Thanks for the years. Bye.
Joseph. Thanks for nothing. Bye.
Texier. See above
Saad. See above
Buchnevich. Bench until we find right trade.

Call up, Dvorsky, Stenberg, Kaskimaki and Sylvegard. They couldn't possibly play any worse.
