Net comes off in final minute of Chicago/Toronto game.

[Makar Goes Fast]

frankly to avoid this situation they should give a match penalty to anyone who touches the post. Gotta get this garbage out of the league

 

[kingsholygrail]

Looks like it came off when he scooted back to the post, then pushed away when he tried to push off. Normal goalie movement. Nothing weird about it. Shit happens.

 

[SotasicA]

I remember this pissed me off to no end. Panarin, nor any other Hawk, was at fault for the net moving, yet got a goal taken away because the net happened to move when Andersen pushed out using the post.

Game continued with a faceoff...

 

[Mick Riddleton]

nothing wrong with that play at all other then it being against the center of the universe

 

[Dekes For Days]

Then how do you rationaize your proposition with the leafs fans that claim it wasnt intentional? They're not objective? They're just self hating?

Self-hating and rationalizing illogical/inconsistent/unfair outcomes so that we don't go insane is what Leaf fans do best.

I'd be saying it is just as stupid if the roles were reversed. This type of play is toxic and destructive to the health of the game of hockey, and it ruined an otherwise exciting game.

Proclaiming ill intent to something so mundane and possibly accidental is the epitome of grasping at straws.

I'm not sure how cheating to directly affect the outcome of a game is "mundane". Clear motive, with personal benefit as a result. Clear and perfect timing, when the same goalie actions didn't result in movement prior. Clear execution caught on video. No punishment or consequences.

That's a valid topic of discussion on a hockey forum.

After the first contact with the post, it could be reasonable to speculate that Delia realized it was partially loose and he could push off the post when the puck came out front and knock the net completely loose and get away with it.

I am not sure if it was intentional or not. I do think though that regardless of this situation, if the Leafs wanted to win this game, they should not have let the Hawks have a 5-1 lead to begin with.

 

[Dekes For Days]

And tripping happens all the time with and without intent and are let go without a call.

Not in the offensive zone, on a scoring play, after relentless pressure, where the only out was to trip. That's a penalty.

OMG, the net coming off in a CHICAGO versus TORONTO game where TORONTO got impacted?!?!

Let's discuss it like it's not something that happens all the time in non CHICAGO vs TORONTO games.

It's held in there by a rubber hose, it's going to come off sometimes.

You probably Shoulda took your meds this morning.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Thought is was penalty in real time

Net was clearly loose, probably when Leaf player fell on it. Post wasn't fully reset and flush to the peg so it got knocked off when delia pushed. shit happens

 

[Jozay]

Net was loose already. Didnt look like he intentionally put more pressure on the post than usual.

The real issue is that thet net came off with like 24 seconds left, but the whistle was blown at like 19 seconds.

 

[Ezekial]

Not intentional, he was covering his post like he was supposed to. This happens sometimes, just not always in crucial situations.

 

[tony d]

Poor luck but something that could have happened to any team. Toronto will have to move on from it.

 

[FissionFire]

What did they use a mooring there, a toothpick? That net came off ridiculously easily. Pretty sure if Dellia has sneezed towards it that it would have flown off.

 

[Flipwon]

Funny the time some people spend on this. I'm almost 200% certain the maple leafs themselves blame that loss on the first period and arent even thinking about the final minute.

nobody is disputing how the net is held in place, but there is a rule governing this very type of incident, there is also a 2 violations on the same face-off rule

 

[Macbanan]

It was pretty irritating when I watched it and wanted a goal but it's pretty obvious the net was loose considering the net didn't actually lift when it was pushed off, it just slid away.

*not a leaf fan but always enjoys a good comeback

 

[Hawkaholic]

Sorry, I meant objective Hawks fans. Actually, even you know, you just won't admit it.
.

Yes, you are totally objective here LOL

 

[Ezekial]

Sorry, I meant objective Hawks fans. Actually, even you know, you just won't admit it.

I hate both the Hawks and Leafs, and I hate the Hawks more. That shit wasn't intentional, friend.

I don't feel like combing through 4 pages....have we talked about how Marner just dove on top of and layed on Delia in the first place? Is that Cheating? I mean it was clear execution caught on video with no punishment or consequences.

 

[Pookie]

Really?

So you are new to hockey, eh?

1st period penalties are not OT penalties. And definitely not OT game 7 penalties.

 

[Voight]

IIRC a week or two ago this happened in NYR vs PIT & Malkin got a penalty shot.

However last nights incident didnt look intentional IMO, the net was already little loose from all the action.

 

[piteus]

LOL. I'd understand if the Yotes were whining ... but the League wants Chicago over TORONTO? Toronto - the alleged MECCA of hockey? Where they print money due to hockey? This has to be the dumbest argument of all time.

Yeah ... the NHL wants Toronto to struggle.

The Leafs were CRASHING into the net the last 5 minutes. There were some borderline interference penalties that were not called. Please spare me the tears. Delia barely went against the post when the net came off. Furthermore, there was a clear whistle when everyone stopped playing except the shooter.

Here was the REAL issue: why did the Leafs sleep walk through the first 40 minutes? That LOSS was all on the Leafs players. Heck, Crow didn't even play in the 3rd period and the Hawks still held on.

 

[member 262271]

I didn't see it, but it seems like too much of a talking point. If you play poorly for a 2/3 of the game you deserve to lose.

 

[Master P]

what on earth does this have to do with the net off it's moorings?

The joke is that Toronto doesn't have enough money to buy good nets. Try and keep up kiddo.

Get a grip.
