You tried so hard and got so far

I do feel bad for him. He has so much heart. But skill-wise he's not what he used to be, unfortunately.

 

[Rebels57]

They will happen. 100 % guaranteed

[gertbfrobe16]

is he talking about himself or the refs? in either case he would be correct.

2nd lowest Points% in the league. They're not catching Ottawa. We've hit best reasonable case given the situation.

Colorado are some lucky bastards. Add a high pick & don’t even take the hardships to get there. Credit to them for taking advantage of a dumb GM/owner.

 

[The Madrigal]

As frustrating as it is , status quo is 100% the right decision until the trades are made.

This line up won’t win a game until after their bye week

Exactly. It's amazing that people can't see what the strategy is. They are in full on tank mode. When the deadline gets close they will unload players that don't fit into the long term plan. At that time you will probably some young guys get opportunities to come up and play down the stretch. In the off season they will have a top 10, probably even top 5 pick and a ton of cap space to re-tool the roster pretty quickly. There really isn't much of a point in making trades right now because the team isn't going anywhere this year and NHL teams simply don't make blockbuster multi-player trades in the middle of the season anymore. The product is beyond brutal right now but for the greater good of the organization it's the right move to watch the season burn to the ground and let it.

i woulda gave up the 2 points for your salami,you need the feeling of winning big for a change, so you can keep feeding the monkey.

At whom, exactly, is this directed?

 

[Ghosts Beer]

At whom, exactly, is this directed?

I would guess the officials for calling a penalty that happened after an offsides that they ruled occurred and therefore negated a goal. If the should-have-been offsides negated the goal that happened after it, shouldn't it also, logically, negate a penalty that happened after, it also?

It's completely illogical that it would negate a goal but not a penalty. But I guess they refs would probably say the goal is reviewable, the penalty is not. I still say BS.

They omitted the part where G grabbed what he thought were sticks also but happened to be Simmonds legs...

If I interpret rule 78.7 correctly, then the proper call was made. I am going to try to get clarification through someone who refs on another level though that will probably be his interpretation based on video review at the NHL level.

NOTE 2: If one or more penalties (major or minor) are assessed between the time of the “Off-side” play and the video review that disallows the apparent goal, the offending team(s) (and responsible Player(s)) will still be required to serve the penalty(ies) identified and assessed, and the time of the penalty(ies) will be recorded as the time at which the play should have been stopped for the “Off-side” infraction.

 

[Striiker]

I think that was after he got thrown out of the game. If so, it was probably directed at the refs because he was mad Ghost got a penalty that didn't make sense.

Good research. I figured that's the way it must be. Logically, I don't like it, because the play should have been called dead, so they're penalizing a player for an official's mistake.

I'm guessing it's no different than when if a goal goes in and play continues on and a penalty occurs after the goal is scored and the next stoppage, the time goes back to when thr puck went in, but any penalty that occurred during that time is still served

 

[SladeWilson23]

Stars loss will be 9 games. If we can’t beat Devils Sat this can easily hit 14 games. That’s impressive

Beating the Devils won't be that difficult.

I went looking for a gif to accurately describe how I felt about the game, saw this, laughed at the gorilla face, ogled Linda Carter and decided to post it and call it a night.

If the team can quit, so can I!

nhl interpretation, refs are never wrong, even after making a mistake, it says so in the rules.
