Imagine if Mikey could finish…like ever.

That was a tough angle, but agree with your general point.

 

[Neil Racki]

Matheson can play ….

How is Ovechkin not out there

Stick = face, however slight = 2 mins

Just sucks given the odd reversed call 1st period

 

[twabby]

I've never understood the concept of a "heavy" shot. Do shooters actually add mass to the puck when they shoot?

Meh. Looked like he got his arm under it and pulled the stick into his own face to draw the call.

Man these refs suck

 

[Neil Racki]

lol at least the refs know they are sucking

 

[notDkristich]

lol, icing on PK

 

[RedRocking]

They called icing on a PK?!

 

[Capitals40]

Omg

no, the laws of physics wins everytime

That tends to be a puck that's spinning a lot. It is harder to control and literally has extra energy in the form or rotational kinetic energy, so there is a bit of extra "mass" in that regard.

game good guys

Hell yeah Carlson

Not those that have heard of E=mc^2, which conveys energy as mass.

it's the same shiat argument in soccer. where is "spin" for E = mc^2? please

good guys game!

No, that is just a high, hard one

 

[twabby]

Anthony Mantha gets the game puck tonight. Behind Strome arguably their best player this season.

Honorable mentions go to Milano, Strome, Oshie, and Protas.

Rotational kinetic energy is the E in that formula, m is the mass, and c is the speed of light.

Google it. I'm not your high school teacher.

Oh Twabby, and this is where you are flawed relying so much on advanced stats. As a goalie for over 30 years, a heavy shot means the shooter gets more strength behind it the shot. Strength behind a shot is lowered body strength and wrist strength(shooters with strong wrist get more snap in their shot). Upper body strength can be a factor too, but not with just big muscles, upper body mass. It's why OV has a heavy shot, as he can put a lot of down force weight into shooting the puck! Heavy shots make a bigger thud sound off the goalies leg pads/other equipment(chest protector, blocker and glove).
