Why is Perry's goal unassisted? Hintz isn't getting any assists this year I guess.

Thats BS, it´s a clear assist, they´d never remove it if it was McDavid

Lost two assists now . He should have 9 points and not 7 .

Why is that happening?? They can add mising assist later

I don't know. The opposing team for a second slightly touched the puck both times before Perry and Heiskanen scored so my guess is thatswhy the assists had been taken away. Of course that Perry goal was generated mostly by Hintz but for a second the Flyers player touched the puck before it went to Perry so no assist for you.

On the goal against the Blues the pass Hintz made bounced off a Blues player to Heiskanen. So he didn't intend to pass it to Miro but it ended up there.

Thats sucks. He don't need the assist that much but for some players it can decreased their confidence.

I thought the other team needed to possess the puck to negate an assist. Pretty sure I’ve seen players awarded an assist when it deflected off an opposing players stick. Hopefully they give it back to him, he sure as hell deserves it.

I just watched the replay and the Flyers' defenseman did whack the puck out of midair and along the boards which I'm guessing counts as possession. Hintz touches the puck before that happens but not again after. Perry grabs it off the boards and scores it from there, so I can agree with no assist to Hintz.

7:21 of this video has the play and a replay from the opposite angle.
