GDT: WCSF GM05 | Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers | Thur. May 16th | 7pm PST | SNP/CBC | So Tight, Almost Like a Playoff Series

[JAK]

Even an ex Oiler and homer Craig Simpson called it a bad call, only the blind can say that was a just penalty,

 

[SharksCyclops]

You can’t commit interference when you have possession. Doesn’t work that way.

The puck was long gone...and then he jumped up AND impeded Foegle. Not much of a real play for the puck on anyone's part there.

 

[Czechboy]

Just my 2 cents.. weak ass call and please don't quote me a rulebook.lol

 

[wavaxa2]

Clearly interference.

 

[soothsayer]

He jumped up, not not into. You f***king people.

Read the actual rule.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

He jumped into Foegle as he was coming in to initiate body contact

There is NO way to know if Foegele was going to hit him.

 

[God]

“probably” does not mean “isn’t”

And by the rule book, this is a penalty…be mad at the 99% of the time the refs miss the call, not the one time they didn’t

Again, the text of the rulebook is intended to convey a jump into an opponent when you are hitting them. Pettersson is getting targeted with a hit, not the other way around.

 

[Muffin]

Lmao McDiver

 

[JKG33]

Uh oh a Canuck took a breath in McDavids direction better call a penalty

 

[Three On Zero]

Typical McDavid embellishment, also went for a 10/10 swan dive

 

[Raistlin]

Series tied 2-2, but you can tell which team wanted it more. But Holy crap with all the PPs. This is ridiculous.

 

[LTIR]

South Dakota Joshua..thanks

 

[Ezekial]

That would be you, who initiated contact?

He jumped into the contact. That's it. That's the penalty

 

[canadianmagpie]

Dive

 

[Bgav]

What a dive holy shit LOL

 

[Matty Sundin]

Famous last words...

Probably

 

[NyQuil]

The puck was long gone...and then he jumped up AND impeded Foegle. Not much of a real play for the puck on anyone's part there.

Foegele was trying to hit him. It's not like he was trying to avoid him.

Just a weird play.

 

[Binder]

dive mcdavid doing what he does best

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Like Vancouvers intensity much more than Edmontons

Edm looks quite lifeless

 

[Donuts]

Fans already know the league favours specific teams over others but this series really exposed how much they rig games.

They really want oil to advance but canucks in their way

 

[TheUnusedCrayon]

Another dive lol

 

[JAK]

Just my 2 cents.. weak ass call and please don't quote me a rulebook.lol

HF Oil is gonna ban you.

 

[nucks88]

Straight up.

didn’t jump into anyone.

The broadcast crew was likewise confused.

Apparently they don’t know as much as the keyboard warriors here lol……

 

[TheOrganist]

Cuthbert is morphing into Junior from the Sopranos.

 

[Mobiandi]

Podkolzin has to be trade bait next year. He’s in that Markus Granlund, Baertschi tier of Euro player that is afforded more potential than he probably deserves
