GDT: [GM73] Canucks vs Stars | Thur. Mar 28th, 7:00pm | SNP | Big Game

Wish we acquired a top 6 forward this deadline.

Playing Bains with Miller with 10 games left before the playoffs is definitely a choice. Tocchet is trying to get the team locked in but he’s doing things like this. The team needs to play its best lines and players together consistently and get things rolling like now

 

[RobertKron]

Tocchet just really doesn't want to do the Lotto line

He's understandably reluctant to associate himself with gambling after Operation Slapshot.

Where was the battle? Pete was skating towards him. That was it.

If this is the kind of officiating the Canucks are going to receive in the playoffs, they're doomed

Every Canadian team buttmans need is usa winners we fill areas for hockey they won't if they aren't winning some little lawyer who smiles getting millions shoved up his ass runs the game his way

 

[VanillaCoke]

Video replay and two refs ruined officiating

Definitely. AI should actually help eventually but it'll be decades before dinosaur nhl adopts it.

I've been saying for a couple years there's too many effing refs on the ice, four extra grown men always in the way right on the playing surface is super unnecessary.
Either put one off the ice, or make them all stay out of the way. Why do they need to be in the corner exactly where the puck is cycled every single play trying to dance around.


Ai should save baseball from angel hernandezez soon atleast.

Same. Seeing the lineup tonight really emphasises how lacking we are on the wing. Nothing we can do about it now but I think they have to make a choice between Pettersson or Lindholm moving to the wing cause there's no shot you're playing Lindholm on the fourth line. Personally, I'd go...

Pettersson - Miller - Boeser
Hoglander - Lindholm - Mikheyev
Joshua - Blueger - Garland
Pod - Suter - Lafferty
PDG/Aman

It's the normal height of the shoulder.

 

[Misko]

Sus calls are one thing, but playoff hockey is shrugging them off, killing the penalty and bouncing back, so I'd rather the Canucks just come back in the 2nd and get a goal or two as payback. Play the game not the refs.

Nobody skates completely standing straight up knees locked, it's wherever you shoulder happens to be located when you hit it, as long as you are standing. Also you blue line is way outta whack, you can see the crowd in between his shoulder and that line

NHL needs to make refs do media after games explain but buttmans idea of accountability is usa $ up his ass

That's why I drew the line straight up from his legs. Blue is the estimated top height of his normal shoulder height.

Stick was above his shoulder no doubt NHL 8th rate officials on and off ice and thats on purpose just a joke run by a little lawyer who would break his ankles trying to skate

 

[docbenton]

Cole needs be scratched. He's their #7 defenseman.

 

[bandwagonesque]

The was a questionable call, and Gary Bettman shoves things up his ass.

Normal shoulder heigh means wherever his shoulders happen to be when standing. The rule is not written with the assumption that everyone stands up straight

You're going hard on this. The effort is admirable. For that, I'm going to agree with your take on the call. You win the game.

 

[geebaan]

No more excuses, just score

Supposed to be a dig at me, bbud I am offended

I reffed for 3-4 seasons I can't remember specifically how long it's been a while. Was fun because I was basically at the rink 24/7 but it gives you a different perspective on things for sure.

Your ability to double down on being wrong and then trying to answer it with ChatGPT is really quite amusing

At the end of the day, it's a penalty in the regular season that at best is a 50/50 in the grand scheme it doesn't really matter.
