Sure, but like I've said. I'm going to defer to the league's judgement on this one. They clearly agree it was an accident. Unlike his hit on Johansson which was pretty black & white.

I merely find your assertion that Brad Marchand doesn’t benefit from some sort of bias towards “star” players laughable. The assertion would have been laughable in 2013, now it feels like a self-aware bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 That game in Boston last night was an absolute heist by the Blue Jackets. Backup goalie, no Seth Jones, badly out-chanced, held a 4-3 lead in the third and won in overtime. Definitely should've been a penalty on Dubois for the breakaway hook on Marchand, but it's Marchand soooo it's impossible to feel bad about it. I also know it's rankled Boston fans something good so double points. You're lucky he was even allowed to play in the game. Also you have 99 points through 71 games. Maybe CTFO. I'll say something nice now - Ryan Donato is gonna be good. I wish they played him more in the US olympic games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzyman314 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I was at the Bruins game last name. Still a damn good game. Reminds me of that hot streak the BJ were on last year. Donato is amazing.

That should be out for sure. This exact thing happened in the Caps-Habs game tonight where a Capitals defenseman who tried to stickhandle his way out of the zone, got his pocket picked, and gave up a quick breakaway ended up getting a mulligan because Jonathan Drouin threw the play off-side on the initial entry (because OF COURSE it's always gotta be Jonathan Drouin in these things). That Montreal ended up giving up the puck and Washington had an easy zone exit that...whoever it was (didn't catch their name)...they botched doesn't matter.

Sport Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 That's dumb. Change of possession should nullify the ability to challenge an offsides. Like how if a player fumbles an interception and the offense recovers it resets to first down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to meet a player who was ever taught to do that intentionally to get a whistle. At the bare minimum, at least the offsides challenge attempts to solve a problem that exists, rather than solving a made up problem. On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc?

I have yet to meet a player who was ever taught to do that intentionally to get a whistle. At the bare minimum, at least the offsides challenge attempts to solve a problem that exists, rather than solving a made up problem. that penalty sucks and created the thing where any time a puck goes over the glass ever every player on the ice immediately points to the heavens. They never did that before that penalty. Hey thanks for letting us know where the puck went none of us saw it. I still say, though, that the offsides challenge also solves a problem that doesn't exist. One time Matt Duchene was wildly offsides and the goal was allowed to stand, but it wasn't a huge issue that we were getting every blue line entry completely right. Before the challenge was instituted it was clear in 999/1000 instances whether a guy was trying to be onside. If the refs missed it then they missed it, but that's better than your team scoring a goal and then worrying if it'll stand or not because 30 seconds earlier, a guy's skate was in the air. It's gotten like the NFL where I can't ever feel good about a score until 30 seconds later when it's confirmed. I'm close to being convinced that the game would be better without blue lines. Maybe a hybrid system where one player is allowed in ahead of the puck, which would mean defenseman would still need to hold the blue line in the offensive zone, but would open rushes down ice a bit more.
