GDT: Rangers v. Wild (8PM EST) - Loffen Search Party Led By Crease Edition

[ecemleafs]

Why no penalty shot? Seems like they always call them against us.

think id rather a PP than a boyle PS lol

 

[The Gloaming]

Do the Wild actually have a player named Stoner?

Yes. Clayton Stoner. One of my favorite names.

Why no penalty shot? Seems like they always call them against us.

Cause he got the shot off.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

Mario Lemieux would've scored that.

 

[AHB*]

I'm so sick of MSL always looking to pass. Shoot the puck.

 

[Stugots]

Better off. I don't want Boyle taking a PS.

Lol just said this to my dad. I'll take the PP

 

[Baby Punisher]

Do the Wild actually have a player named Stoner?

He needs to be traded to the Av's.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

MSL needs to shoot that one.

 

[RyanBozak]

Stepan with three blocked passes consecutively. Bad choices.

 

[Idlerlee]

how isnt that a penalty shot ?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Cause he got the shot off.

Skinner got a PS despite getting his shot off...

 

[aufheben]

how isnt that a penalty shot ?

Because he got the shot off!

 

[The Gloaming]

Cause he got the shot off.

That isn't the rule.

Unless I'm missing sarcasm here.

 

[RiceCooker]

Ugh...The Powerplay Sucks again !!

 

[Uncle Sid]

realistically, would boyle have scored on a penalty shot anyways?

 

[Baby Punisher]

Nice job getting back.

 

[aufheben]

That isn't the rule.

Unless I'm missing sarcasm here.

So what's the rule?

 

[Crease]

A penalty shot restores a lost scoring opportunity. Boyle was on the breakaway. Therefore, no scoring opportunity was lost.

 

[Thunderhead]

Why can't we score ?

 

[Megustaelhockey]

So what's the rule?

NHL rule 24.8.iii:

The player in possession and control (or, in the judgment of the Referee, clearly would have obtained possession and control of the puck) must have been denied a reasonable chance to score (the fact that he got a shot off does not automatically eliminate this play from the penalty shot consideration criteria. If the foul was from behind and he was denied a “more†reasonable scoring opportunity due to the foul, then the penalty shot should be awarded);

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Heatley is now a 4th liner? Boy, how the mighty have fallen.

 

[NYR510]

heatley is on the 4th line? wow

 

[Kane One]

How was that not offside?

 

[The Gloaming]

So what's the rule?

The PS is called when the shooter is directly interfered with. It doesn't matter of they get a shot off. Sometimes you will see the ref raise his hand when the shooter is hooked and hasn't even gotten to the net yet.
