GDT: Pittsburgh Penguins @ Detroit Red Wings

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

There's no probably about it, I am watching it on stream through NHL TV, stop it in the above angle you see the black puck in the webbing clearly over the line.

That makes sense. They started to show that replay from the above angle but then cut away before I could see it clearly.

Hell, from the in front angle you can see his glove swing inside the post.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Booth, why not dish it to a guy who's fresh off the bench and probably has a better shot?

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

So Crosby, a guy with concussion issues of his own, punches Z in the back of the head? And no call?

Sure refs aren't going o give Sid a penalty.

Yeah, it was pretty obvious that it was as soon as I saw the first replay. He whole glove was basically over the line. And honestly that's his fault. The only reason that looked potentially spectacular was because he was flopped on his stomach for no discernible reason.

seeing it again it really wasn't much. I'm not a fan of any blow to the back of a guys head but this looked almost like just pushing his helmet forward.

He's stretching out to make a save to his left. Unless you're Jonathan Quick and can do the sideways splits, you're gonna fall forward like that.

He's stretching out to make a save to his left. Unless you're Jonathan Quick and can do the horizontal splits, you're gonna fall forward like that.

It started with him being basically on his stomach at the beginning of the sequence. He was trying to take away the bottom third of the net, hoping that the cross net pass was taken away. He was trying to play the odds, and got burned.

That had to be it. Hard to see on my stream other than "looks like it might be a puck..". Maybe possible in full HD and zoomed in. There's been so many situations where pucks end up underneath goalies and you can 99.9% assume the puck is over the line, but if no angle actually captures the entire puck across the goalline they haven't called it a good goal, this seemed similar.

Wings can't even fill the seats for a New Years Eve game??

Jensen trying to be a forward and being bailed out by AA and Larkin

 

[Cursed Lemon]

That call was absolute horse shit. It's supposed to be conclusive. NONE of those replays were conclusive.

Actually its the scheme, not the player. Watch it, you will see they are cycling the defense low and the fowards cycling back to the line and then the forwards go back forward and defense going back. Its supposed to create more pressure.

I hit the rewind 10 seconds button when I turned it on and it's been crystal clear since.

It worked for me. thanks for the idea

I disagree. He wasn't on his stomach. He's crouched down on his knees covering the near post looking through traffic. The pass is made across to Malkin he stretches to the other post, makes the glove save, then falls forward because he's stretched out and his center of gravity is forward. The fall forward happens after the save.

It was an almost great save by Jimmy.

it was actually pretty conclusive. The overhead and ice level both show that the puck and glove were over the line.

 

[NervousPerson]

YES!!!! FRANS!!!

 

[Ezekial]

Nice move Nielsen.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Nielsen!

I was gonna criticize him for not taking the shot and delaying.

But he sacrificed mobility for playing deep and low in the net. If you watch Jimmy this happens a lot more often than a vet should allow.

And a beauty by Frans.

 

[Filppula]

Good, another point for Green.

That could be. He was definitely sacrificing his mobility to cover the post and see through traffic.

My bad then, I just tuned in to the game and that was the first thing I saw

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Loved seeing Ericsson shove Malkin to the ice. More of that please.

 

[Shaman464]

Its been a scheme they've been playing the last ten or so games. Jensen just isn't that good at it so he looks super out of place doing it.

Pens are playing the same scheme and they got burned by Frans.
