The Senator Posted May 9, 2019 Posted May 9, 2019 1 minute ago, May Day 10 said: It has always been based on flagrancy/amount of 'carelessness'. 2 minutes for HS, double minor for blood, 5 minute major if severe violation. I always loved how hockey has a penalty tangibly based on if there is bleeding or not. Have to disagree - it was an automatic major if you drew blood. That’s why some guys were so good at biting thru their lip (Ray Bourque comes to mind). Obviously, you can score more goals in major than a double-minor, and some guys bleed more easily, maybe making the current rule more fair. .
May Day 10 Posted May 9, 2019 Posted May 9, 2019 Since I recall (1987 through now, but more vividly perhaps 1990 on), the blood was to detect a double-minor

CommonCents Posted May 9, 2019 Posted May 9, 2019 Remember when Toronto stuck a dagger in the Bruins game 1? Yeah I don’t either.

Why should he qualify for Offside. Hate inconsisten schite like this in sports when common sense can't be used when making rules. And forget the fact that his skate looked like it was still on the blue line when the puck was in the zone. At worst, inconclusive. But the call was consistent. What your asking for is the ref to make a black and white call subjective. In effect, the exact opposite of consistency. My biggest problem with NHL officiating is the subjective nature of refereeing in the playoffs. What was illegal in the regular season is now ok in the playoffs. Refs now in the position to control the game by NOT calling all kinds of shite. Hell, I was screaming at the TV all series because the constant pick plays the Av's were running. Why no penalties? By trying to not have an impact on the game the refs are having the most impact by letting teams cheat. Really done with all the whining of calls made when all the other crap going on effects the game even more but not even mentioned.

No, i'm saying if the player is inactive for one rule, be consistent and make him inactive for all rules. But i do agree with you on the double standard between reg season and playoffs. Case in point, tonight's Boston game. Been a beef of mine since i started watching hockey as a kid. Edited May 10, 2019 by Jukester

I feel it puts the refs in a really bad position. In addition to making the correct calls, now they have to make decisions when to call them. The prevailing mentality for years has been "We (the refs) don't want to affect the game" "Let 'em play" Well, they are influencing the outcome by letting teams interfere, hold and obstruct or whatever it is. There is a faceoff in my end and the Avs win the draw. Puck goes back to the point and a Shark forward goes out to cover. Landescog cuts him off in the faceoff circle preventing him from defending. Avs Dman scored from the point. More subtle and less obvious than either the Shark offside call or the 5 min major vs Vegas but just as impactful as a goal was allowed when there should have been a call. This has always bothered me.
BillsFan4 Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 I still can’t believe that BOTH teams buffalo acquired 1st round picks from are playing against each other in the conference finals (giving them 2 of the last 4 picks in the 1st round). Thankfully we traded one one of the picks to Anaheim for Montour while it still had that value of the unknown. Unreal though. If that’s not buffalo luck, I don’t know what is. lol 1
Dante Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Couldn't fight it. Bought a couple of tix for game one. GO SHARKS! 2
Doc Brown Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 O'Reilly is a beast. Wish we could have players like that. 1
T&C Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 That steal and score by Mirier SP was sweet, one of the best goals I've seen so far in the playoffs.

Jukester Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Solid game by the Sharks last night. Hopefully Blues can take something from that third period and carry it forward to game 2.
