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

[LastOne2100]

Strange call but the correct call according to the rule book.

Charging - A minor or major penalty shall be imposed on a player who skates, jumps into or charges an opponent in any manner.

Conrad MacDougall needs unlimited PPs to do anything and I guess the league is trying to help him out here.

 

[Old Boys Club]

Can tell how many in here have never played the game.

 

[iFan]

that's a weak call

 

[Unholy]

Gonna be 2011 again

 

[Kingsfan1]

LOL hilarious... all f***ing series. gotta do whatever it takes to get McFlop to the Finals i guess

Ya cause Mcpussee is constantly crying to the Refs . Soon as he gets touched you might as well que that meme “Ouch my p***y hurt”

 

[KeydGV21]

Pretty sure any neutral fan will be able to see that's a horrendous call.

I’m pretty sure anyone that reads the rule book will know they got the call right

 

[Canucks LB]

That referee should not have another playoff game after that, there is bad, and then there’s that one

 

[NyQuil]

Lol he jumped into the hit he left his feet it’s charging

Wasn't he being hit? That's the weird part.

 

[Raistlin]

The refs became the focal point of this series, that's textbk bad reffing.

 

[Sheppy]

Gonna be 2011 again

It might be 2011 before the third period

 

[CpatainCanuck]

Charging when you are standing still? When you are the player getting hit? Give me a break

 

[BERTUZZZZi]

Trashy Oiler fans be crying all night even though they've been getting all the calls and getting away with murder

 

[LTIR]

Left feet for a reverse hit. Not charging but he got Foegele up high and left his feet.

 

[TheUnusedCrayon]

Guy who never played hockey clearly

If you've played hockey you know you jump to absorb contact with hits coming your way. Watch majority of hits along the walls.

Wouldn't expect you to know that since you play and all.

 

[trilobyte]

Bro jumped like 3 feet

Maybe 18" but that's irrelevant anyway, but I guess not to the refs

 

[Bizzare]

People here don’t know rule’s apparently.

You can’t jump into an oncoming hit. Easiest call you can make

Let’s see the rule

 

[NyQuil]

People here don’t know rule’s apparently.

You can’t jump into an oncoming hit. Easiest call you can make

He jumped and was hit.

 

[GrumpyKoala]

Petterson was afraid of the contact then jumped to protect himslef and was call accordingly

 

[Monsieur Miz]

Charging when you are standing still? When you are the player getting hit? Give me a break

He jumped though.

 

[Donuts]

Canucks > Oilers + refs

 

[JAK]

There are calls you don't make in the playoffs, then there are calls that don't even get made in the preseason.

This is one of those.

 

[God]

I’m pretty sure anyone that reads the rule book will know they got the call right

Pretty sure I've seen this play not called 99 times out of 100 (this being the 1) because the "jump" part of that text is intended to to convey when someone is skating into a hit and jumps.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Teddy ballgame was a big part of that kill.

 

[Red]

Strange call but the correct call according to the rule book.

Charging - A minor or major penalty shall be imposed on a player who skates, jumps into or charges an opponent in any manner.

He did none of these. Stationary, up, and was the one being hit.
