The “rules expert“ didn’t know about that rule until Keith Jones pointed it out to him.


Have another donut you fat pig

Ahh ..that angle shows makar didnt touch it on the other side of the line until after nichushskin clears

/im sure someone on canucks twitter will tweet it but something similar to this happened to the canucks in the past couple years iirc

So Oilers basically get jobbed on the offside then get a penalty which results in a PP goal. Nice job refs. Basically a two goal offsides no-call.

Watch for the refs to call a quick penalty on the Avs out of guilt. That'll be their way of putting a band aid on it.

Kuemper channeling his inner Markstrom.

I need a goal from 97 to close out a 4 leg goal scorer parlay

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Jesus Keumper sucks ass.

The dude had the 5th best SV% in the regular season, did getting poked in the eye really affect him that badly a month later?

Good job McJesus, run a guy into your goalie's head.

 

[dkmightyhammer]

So by this standard players can carry the puck over the blueline offside as long as they lift their stick off the puck for one or two strides while their buddy clears the zone before they touch it again. Well, I've never seen that before and I bet I never see it again. Every time you see that play again it'll be called offside is my bet.

This reminds me of the Flames series against the Avs a few years ago. The Oilers are getting turnstiled.

Oilers could use Ethan Bear right about now.

Oh, by the way Jonesy and Koharsky.

Goalies DO have chin straps. There is a chin cup there too that acts as a shock absorber. It's not designed to keep a goalie's helmet in one particular place because due to angles of eye lines, sometimes the helmet is in the way. You need to have movement of your head inside the helmet to be able to see the puck at all times. Also, the helmet moving somewhat helps dissipate energy from shots. Keeping it locked in place injures more goalies.

Long story short - donuts, etc. Both y'all fuck off.
