No point discussing the offside goal. Sharks were the better team for the first 40 before they sat back and Colorado took over the third.
Biggest difference between this and the Vegas series was Jones. I think Colorado would've taken this series if Jones in early Vegas series showed up.

well I zoomed it pretty much and it is pixelated as hell but it could very well be, that his tow touches the blue line. Again they are also two different shots and even half a second could make a difference here.
That's why I'd say it is inconclusive.
Do Landeskog's skates get wider at the front versus...everyone else's which taper toward the toe?

my issue with it is, regardless it is a super close call. the review was extremely quick imo. for the call to be overturned that quick i assumed the nhl had some sort of great camera shot of it. would like to see that if it exists.

he did tag up but once he lifted his leg to exit the ice he put himself offside again.

Not anywhere near the puck or close to involved in the play anymore. If thats too many men, then every change is too many men.
But you're right. If there is such a thing, Gabe is indeed too much man.

Umm....how about no?
It's rare that I see a player actually live up to the gushing overhype in a series that the broadcasters try to lay on the viewers, but MacKinnon deserved every bit of it and then some.
He was absolutely phenomenal in the first half of the series, and then even in the last 3 games he was everywhere all the time, blowing past defenders getting high quality chances....he was terrifying.
Somehow the Sharks D adapted just enough to keep him out of the prime scoring areas in the middle of the ice, just enough to limit the number of A+ chances he had, and Jones made some incredible saves as well.
But the difference between a 2-point night and a 0-point night is a wobbling puck and a bounce the other way off of a stick. Some games you play mediocre and get the bounce, other games you play great and don't get the bounce. It happens. And sometimes the other team plays just a teeny bit better.
But from opening puck drop of game 1 to the final horn of game 7, MacKinnon was a beast. I'm glad to be finally rid of him.
If you consider his series to be a disappointment.....I mean, I don't know what to tell you, man
That’s my thought as well. For how quickly the play was reviewed I thought there was a 100% conclusive angle. And unless the league is holding that camera angle hostage, it doesn’t exist.

the fact that they have to review his position on the ice means he is involved in the play. you can't linger that long at the door to your bench if the play is in that zone, even if your replacement doesn't touch the puck. dont know wtf landeskog was doing but he was standing there forever. probably thought the play was headed into the sharks zone, which it was until that turnover. he was mistaken, and caused the offside.
none of the provided images show that. just relating what the broadcast claimed the nhl said.

I think Bobbie Mac posts a clearer explanation of the rule. It's frustrating when a reviewed offside goal determines a game. Fun series. The Avs are a really good team.
