Not sure of the reasoning / logic behind it but getting a bench minor for losing a challenge on a play for offsides just seems odd

To deter coaches from challenging on borderline scenarios, to help uphold the spirit of the rules

I do think it was inconclusive, maybe the toe of his skate was on the ice

Regardless thst should have been a goal in the spirit of hockey. The offsides rule wasn't implemented to prevent goals like that lol. Also having your skate in the air but bring behind the line should absolutely mean you are on sides.

Agreed. Should be a rule change

It's supposed to keep teams from challenging everything without consequence. You'd better be sure.

I think they need to deal with pucks over the glass like an icing. Same with losing any challenge, offsides or goalie interference. Still a negative consequence but not as harsh.

If it’s “inconclusive,” you shouldn’t get the bench minor IMO. Unlike Blashill’s usual challenges, this was a smart move to make.

No complaints about the call though. That was a sick shit by Svech. He deserved it.

Am I crazy or is this like 3 games in a row I'm bored shitless. Red Wings looks slow and soft as Charmin and heavily outshot...

You're right we've been absolutely terrible for the third or fourth game in a row now

You know it's going to be a long night when Ehn and de la Rose are the only guys that look dangerous offensively

Amazed how many times Wings stay level or take a lead when giving up nearly double the shots. Imagine the scoring once they find a way to put shots on net.

Judging by how everyone on the telecasts talks about Mrazek, anyone else get that feeling that Mrazek had no issues burning a ton of bridges on his way out?

I'm not saying a lot of what they say is false...or true...but they have no qualms letting viewers know about it.

What makes Carolina so good at getting shots? Don't they still lead the league?
