GDT: G4: Wild Home Opener vs Pit 7:30pm CT/3:30am Finland(FSN)

[NHL1674]

Even Bruce says, "Screw it!".

 

[2Pair]

that's a goal by rule

 

[TaLoN]

Meh, lose the challenge, get a minor...at this point that doesn't matter anyway so why not?

 

[2Pair]

shocked that they got it wrong

 

[AKL]

They didn't though. That was goaltender interference.

 

[2Pair]

nope

 

[Wild11MN]

I knew they were counting all failed challenges as minors, but I didn't realize the rest of the rule change. Unlimited minors, with each failed challenge after the first being a double minor. Wowza.

 

[AKL]

nope

Hartman clearly interfered with Murray's ability to make a play at the puck

 

[2Pair]

it isn't interference if the contact is caused by a defender.

 

[AKL]

I have a feeling that Donato will be in next game and Kunin will come out.

 

[AKL]

The contact wasn't caused by the defender. At best it was 50/50.
Hartman initiated contact with the defender.

 

[TaLoN]

When does Staal get the pressbox?

 

[AKL]

When does Staal get the pressbox?

Hahah

Oh you're serious

 

[57special]

Soucy showing some surprising skill there? Thought it was Brodin for a second

 

[2Pair]

The contact wasn't caused by the defender. At best it was 50/50.
Hartman initiated contact with the defender.

none of this makes sense. Are you arguing that Hartman intended to go sliding into the net on his back?

 

[AKL]

I'm arguing Hartman initiated the contact with Guentzel, that caused him to interfere with Murray, preventing Murray from playing the puck.

It's goaltender interference. Just went back and watched it again. Twice. It's goaltender interference.

1. You're arguing that Hartman initiates contact while shooting the Puck?
2. You think Hartman initiating contact has any bearing on the rule?

Go back and watch it. If you don't understand how Hartman initiated the contact then there's no reason to discuss any further with you.

 

[TaLoN]

6-2

 

[2Pair]

Go back and watch it. If you don't understand how Hartman initiated the contact then there's no reason to discuss any further with you.

Again, do you think it matters who initiates contact?

 

[AKL]

Hornqvist has a really punchable face

 

[57special]

Dunno what Brodin thought he was doing there....

 

[BlackBusa24]

What a weak penalty. Was that a makeup call for something? Admittedly I haven't been paying a lot of attention

 

[AKL]

Again, do you think it matters who initiates contact?

It does matter, because if Guentzel isn't the one that forces him into the goalie, then it's goalie interference. It doesn't matter if Hartman intended to interfere or not. Guentzel did not force him into Murray.

Hartman initiated the contact that caused him to collide with Murray, therefore, Guentzel couldn't possibly have forced him into Murray, therefore, it's goaltender interference.

 

[Grover]

Can we as a forum..come together and agree that we need years of rebuild?
