Prospect Info: Ivan Demidov (2024 5th OA): SKA St. Petersburg (KHL): Part III

I mean, that'd be goaltender interference in the NHL, no?
No way the goalie could get to that puck. Unless he jumped over the pile, which would have been pretty awesome though haha
 
That's the right call IMO.
There were about 100 players in the crease blocking the goalie's movement, sure most of them were his own team, but plenty of SKA players willingly got in there as well.
 
How can you reverse that call? based on what? were you taking bribes from both teams during the review?

The puck is in the goal crease. You are allowed to play it. And the way do it is to enter the crease.

Dude, he's not getting out of that contract. Stop dreaming and be glad we even have this player, who will probably dominate in the NHL for a decade or more.


Coming from someone who is actively cheering for Demidov's team to lose because you are upset about the coach not doing what you want... Yea. Let's just say, I'm not the one blinded by my feelings. I care more about Ivan getting experience in playoffs games than about my little grudge against Rottenberg.
If SKA actually had a chance to compete, sure, even with Rottenberg. In the big picture if he steals Dynamo’s lunch money and scores in OT, it’s just delaying the inevitable. It doesn’t change him. And the fact he closes that chapter of his career earlier, is in his best and our best interest.
