You guys made the post season with Orr & McLaren, both even played in that series against the Bruins, no?

I am and will always be a Colton Orr fan.

Dang, totally forgot that series. Probably better that way. You are correct.

Yeah I remember Orr, but I’m not sure if they had had both Orr and McLaren in at the same time? I remember they were both on the team that year though.

Sad many left the game, involuntarily.

Guaranteed that team would’ve 18-wheeled off a cliff if that was an actual 82 game season.

This would make more sense if they didn't win while severely outplaying the Flyers. I guess this is why smart fans don't form opinions based on highlights

Theyre both awful defensively. Sorry i root for a team that hasnt allowed 18 goals this month. Im spoiled.

League has to do something about dislodging the net.

Edler just did it in OT, should be a delay of game penalty, like the puck over the glass infraction, no grey area.

No, they should stiffen the pegs. You can sneeze and those things come off. I do agree, that if the goalie pushes those pegs off it should be a penalty.

They have to do something. It happens several times a game.

When did they switch to the current mooring system?

I have no idea but the net really comes off far too easily. It’s brutal, and super frustrating how easily it conveniently comes off. At least if they stiffen the pegs you’ll know that it takes quite a bit of force to knock them off.

i'm pretty sure they want nets to come off easily for safety reasons. That's fine, but they should change the rules then

 

[GFY]

Yeah but the reason the pegs are so loose is so that in the instance where players get pushed/crash into the net it dislodges easily so they don't get injured.

Damn dude, Peter Forsberg can't even pull the Forsberg off that well [Pettersson].

Nor scored 18 goals in a month

You’re very spoiled. I’m surprised your parents let you stay up this late.

I’m all for safety, but they flat out come off too easily. Even if they stiffen them like 30% or something, the net will still come off at impact.

This actually happened in an deciding FHL playoff game between Brooklyn and Danbury I was at several years ago. Danbury was down a goal with about 30 seconds left pouring on the pressure when the Brooklyn goalie (who had done this several times in the past) accidentally on purpose knocked the net off. The official wasn't buying it and because it was in the last minute Danbury was awarded a penalty shot. The guy converted it and Danbury went on to win the game in overtime.

The rule is already in place. It sounds like your disagreement is with the referees with regards to whether it was intentional or not. If they don't call a penalty, it means they didn't think so or they didn't see it.

Looks like I picked the wrong night to focus heavily on college basketball. I missed an absolute barnburner of a game
