GDT: Game 51: Columbus at Montreal | 1/26 7:30PM EST

Patches not returning tonight. Best wishes to him that looked exceedingly painful.

 

[NotWendell]

I do think the NHL needs to adopt the NFL standard of breaking the plane to count as a score.

The FIFA standard works better I believe. The NFL doesn't use "breaking the plane" for touchbacks or out of bounds passes.

 

[Metallo]

I believe that MTL goal should have been disallowed as the MTL player did not leave the zone (one skate still on the blue line*).

*The blue line is outside the zone when entering the zone and inside the zone when exiting the zone.

What does this mean?

They do have a standard. If it's across, it's a goal. If it isn't, it isn't. It's as straightforward as can be.



I don't see how this is any different other than increasing the scoring area by an inch or so. What will this accomplish, really?

Except the video technology to review blurry and grainy goal/no goal calls due to a puck completely crossing a fuzzy line is hard to tell precisely. It seems it would be clearer to see if the puck actually crosses a line IMO.

They could get better cameras and video system I'm sure.

I'm only talking about goals obviously so only the NFL comparable would be what I am talking about.
I am unfamiliar with FIFA rules.

I'm sure they have HD already. Right? I mean they do give the refs mini ipads to review the calls on so maybe not.

 

[NotWendell]

Toronto screwing over Montreal with the no goal call! LOL
(man, that was close)

 

[NotWendell]

They could get better cameras and video system I'm sure.

If they can put cameras in a pylon (not Dalton Prout in this case), they can surely put them inside the goal posts.

NHL uses the FIFA standard. MLS does too except during MLS Cup matches held in Columbus.

 

[Socks]

It all goes back to frickin' lasers.

 

[CharlotteJacket]

Montreal announcer must think Wennberg is German because he keeps calling him Vennberg.

 

[Socks]

Phew a penalty. I was beginning to worry.

 

[NotWendell]

I agree with Murray. That WAS a soft call.

 

[Metallo]

Yeah those mini ipads are laughable.

They could have custom systems with higher frame rate for slow-mo and jacked up resolution. I always found that slow-mo replays at IIHF events where really better than the NHL.

I think seeing a soccer ball cross through has to be infinitely easier than seeing a puck from a camera in the rafters. I like your idea of the Prout cam though.

 

[Cowumbus]

Wh do they not USe THE CAMERA INSIDE THE NET TO REVIEW GOALS

 

[NotWendell]

It all goes back to frickin' lasers.

You could also put an RFID or smart bluetooth chip in the puck

 

[CBJWerenski8]

was only a matter of time

 

[DJA]

6th time's the charm

 

[We Want Ten]

Phew, I was starting to get worried.

 

[The Jones Zone]

Torts went from 2 to 4 broken ribs

 

[VABUCK]

The Refs should just put on Canadian jerseys!

 

[DJA]

calls not going both ways

 

[We Want Ten]

Thats bs on scrivens.
