Leafs goal called good after review

[HansonBro]

Can't believe this was called a good goal after review for offside. This is like Duchesne level offside. I can't find a clip yet...so if someone wants to post it kudos

It's because it wasn't called on the ice, and it was very hard to tell when Tavares touched the puck again after letting it go at the blue-line. It's similar to this.

About 8:32 in

...Tavares brought it back in, therefore he should have been deemed to have possession and it should have been offside, imo...that said, Makar had it happen in last year's Playoffs and they counted it, so who the F**K knows these days...

To me it looks like Tavares clearly touches it again in the zone before Nylander tags up. Should've been an offside. They probably have an angle that shows it not to be so clear since they didn't overturn it.

If you can't find a clip yet, why didn't you wait to make the thread until after you found a clip?

Looks on-side to me



Seems that both Tavares and Nylander are on-side when Tavares touches the puck in the zone. He doesn’t appear to touch it while Nylander is on the delayed offside.

Anyway, the 5-2 empty net goal with a 1:30 left is hardly relevant to the result of the game so I don’t think this is thread worthy. Definitely not as significant as the Makar offside debate. The refs reviewed it and determined it was on-side.

Clearly this isn’t anywhere close to egregious as the Duchene offside that basically created the coaches challenge. That was a clear offside that couldn’t be reviewed. This was called on-side after being reviewed.
