GDT: Preds vs Hawks 4/16 11:30am

[Bringer of Jollity]

I hate the offside challenge with the fire of 1,000 suns

3rd straight game with a disallowed goal

Hard disagree. If linesmen are going to miss calls that obvious, the challenge is a good thing.

Also, if we want to avoid having goals disallowed, maybe we should try staying onside.

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

Fire coach Hynes.. We are no longer an elite team and I'll be surprised if Forsberg signs a new contract with Nashville.

Welcome to the Preds in '21-'22. We haven't been an "elite" team for a good 2-3 seasons now.

 

[You]

Dumbest team going right now

 

[adsfan]

Iffy call when the sixth skater is going in the door to the bench.

 

[adsfan]

Why not counterattack when the broken stick makes it a 4-on-4?

Iffy call when the sixth skater is going in the door to the bench.

The only possible reason would be if they think Sissons was still far from the bench when Glass came on. Sissons off the ice when Glass played it.

 

[adsfan]

That looked like a trip against Josi that wasn't called.

 

[You]

Forsberg saving all his goals for the playoffs

 

[LCPreds]

2016-17 and 2017-18?

Maybe the latter but I don’t remember ever really thinking that team was elite.

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

$9-$10M per year players bury those chances.

 

[Mass]

That looked like a trip against Josi that wasn't called.

He stumbled on his own, looked like maybe a slight hook as he was falling, but didn’t seem like much to me.

DUCHENE!!!

 

[adsfan]

Duchene!

SC Finals and President's Trophy, back-to-back, puts a team in the "elite" category, even if we couldn't hold it up from there. It was short-lived.

Duchy redeeming himself after the last period

An 8th seed in the West that had a good run and followed by a great regular season and poor post season is a stretch for "elite".

If the puck ends up in the net behind Saros, does that change your opinion of the non-call shortly after the iffy too many men call? The refs are managing this game.

Maybe the refs should have called Kane for dumping Trenin at the end of the period?

I hope for one more Nashville goal, so Trenin can pull a Chara fight on Kane. There is NO justice in this game!

Hockey survived for 100 years without it

There will be calls missed both ways and they even out

Most of them are not obvious- examining microscopic offsides is not the spirit of the rule

Every time a goal is scored there is a part of me afraid to celebrate until sure there is no chance of a callback

It’s not going away though so I know I’m in the minority- I’m just saying I’d be perfectly ok without it

The president’s trophy team was elite- I don’t know how anyone can argue that

And everyone talks about the playoff run as if we got swept in first round. We lost in 2nd round in a 7 game series against a 114 point team- the 2nd best team in the league

This (and a lot of the others I regularly see) was not "microscopic," it was evident in real-time as the play unfolded. The technology to enable these calls to be quickly and accurately reviewed is pretty recent, so the length of time the sport has been played without is fairly irrelevant.

And celebrating is good for you, whether the goal gets called back or not.

GRANNY!!!!

 

[LCPreds]

Tolvanen and Granlund? I love 1130am starts.

 

[PredsV82]

Who knew Granny sold insurance??
