Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Puck never went in. They all stopped because the puck was underneath Holtby's pad - that's kind of standard protocol when the goalie makes a save, the play stops. You know, hockey.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

the image just posted and context clues make it clear it went in. Youre speaking like theres clear evidence it didnt, which there isnt.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

I’m wondering if they didn’t have that picture and are prevented from using that source or something.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

How in the fuck is it 'clear as day'??? There isn't definitive evidence it was a goal by any stretch - there's not significant white at all

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Whatever the call on the ice was fair. Called no goal on the ice should have stayed a goal. If it was called good goal on the ice it should have been a good goal.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

:lol :lol :lol

How much white does there need to be for it be “significant” ?

We’ve now jumped the shark with this.

Good day!

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Because instant reply in hockey is dumb

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

but I thought the puck didnt go in?

Youre all over the place on this.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Puck was in the net.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

It’s might have been over the line but in no way did it hit the net.

That’s just silly.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

The files are in the computer?

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

I see what you did.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Over the line is all you need, though. I can understand why the call on the ice was no goal. I also contend there was some evidence that showed the puck crossed the line, but I can understand the ruling that it was inconclusive.

Regardless, it was not a goal and the Pens lost. They can’t keep going down 2-0 or 3-0. Glad to see Hags and Dumo skating. Here’s hoping the Pens rebound strongly in Game 3.

Pens melting over a no goal

Like they don't have 2 cups to keep them happy they have to spend all the time melting on a no goal

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Yea, I mean the fact is it was definitely a goal but it didn't change the outcome of the game nor should it be a discussion for this long. Can't wait until Game 3 starts so you guys find something new to entertain us with :)

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)

Hey Guuuuys, love your show,

Long time cawlah, first time listenah.

You guys talkin about the no goal in the Cahps game last night?

Yaaaaaaa, I don’t think that should count. The puck didn’t even hit the bahck of the net. You gotta put that puck in with authority kehd. I don’t think any goal should count if the playah can’t even hit the back of the net! No goal!

I’ll hang up and take your response off aaaaaair.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

In other hockey news, remember that one time Ryan Ellis took a skate to the face and only missed like a matter of minutes before he was back?

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

I didn't make it

I didn't really spend that much time looking up the best burn on Murray's glove. I'll be sure to spend more time researching and vetting better meme's - just for you <3

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Glad he was fine. That looked like it could be nasty

I still remember like it was yesterday Zednik taking the skate to the neck. Blood everywhere

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

And now Ron Francis fired by Carolina.

Maybe Waddell will draft Patrik Stefan again.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Looks like the Pens will be hiring a new assistant...something :lol

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

A lot of fans were chiming in about Toronto now that Lou is no longer the GM. I could see that happening. Going from a cluster fuck like Carolina to TO would be like winning the lottery.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

This is true for sure. I figured how close Francis is with Lemieux and GMJR, the Pens would find something for him if no one else would.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Is this a Zoolander reference?? :lol :lol

Nice work :thumbsup

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Just slightly biased here. :lol

Yeah, at one point it looked like they were targeting Guentzel for whatever reason.

Puck crossed the line prior to the whistle though. Really is water under the bridge at this point but if you watch in slow motion that puck is over the line a second before the whistle goes.

I thought it was clear as day.

Agreed. Sometimes I think the whistle goes quick and that whole 'intent' to blow the whistle is nonsense but I agree with you on the call in the ice being the deciding factor unless they can offer up irrefutable evidence that the call on the ice was dead wrong.

It always amazes me how much punishment these guys can take and go down to the dressing room, get stitched up (or have teeth chunks yanked out) and then return to the ice in a few minutes, no doubt with some local anesthesia.

Francis did a lot of the NHL, specifically in Hartford and Pittsburgh but I am not sure he is cut out to be a GM. Carolina had an awful season (mainly because they sucked) so some of the blame has to go to the players and coaches in addition to Francis.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)

Surprised that was McAvoy’s first post season goal - he’s been playing great from what I’ve seen during these playoffs.

Finally able to watch a game and the power went out halfway through the first period. :BANG

He's going to be great. There's moments where he looks great and there's moments where he's trying to do too much.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Vegas is really going to do it, aren't they?

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

They really look good. That said, I can't 100% say that Vegas won't win it all, but I do think the best two teams in the West are playing in the other series. I like Nashville or Winnipeg to come out of the west.

I do think Vegas wins this series though. If the Preds and Jets go 7, who knows what could happen in the WCF.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

They have defied every expectation so far so who know's, if they win it it all I would not be shocked. That said I still stick with my round 2 picks:

Tampa in 7
Pens in 6
Winnipeg in 6
Vegas in 6

Regardless of whom they match up (assuming they advance) they will have their hands full with a great team in Nashville or Winnipeg.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Just saw MAF rob Couture. That team is on a mission right now my god.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

The best ending to this season would be MAF making a save like that against Pittsburgh in a game 7 to win Vegas the cup right? :D

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

No that sounds like a terrible ending

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

How about Sharks vs. Caps in the SCF of teams that historically under perform in the playoffs?

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Truth, it'd be much better to win in 4. Especially for my heart.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Chatting with my friend from college who's brother-in-law is a former Bruins standout and I randomly asked him about Brad Marchand.

Turns out (SHOCKER!) he's a nice guy, a great dad and is an expert at knowing when to flip the switch to be a pest on the ice. Apparently my buddy's sister and his wife are close friends.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

who is his brother in law?

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Seidenberg. Met his sister when he was playing in Philly. Seidy still remains local to South Jersey too. He trains with one of our local top trainers and works out at the Skate Zone in AC in the summer.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Malkin and Dumo in regular jerseys at morning skate. Would be a huge boost to get both back.

Another nice head shot by wilson. This fuckin guy

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Clean hit. Ready for the Pens twitter melt.

Shoulder to shoulder

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Wilson should have at the very least been assessed a penalty.

League has to suspend him now, that’s two questionable hits.

Wild second period.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

I feel like this is a good time to point out to all of the Philly fan apologists out there (well really just Zilla cause the fine Flyer fan regulars ITT disavowed the beer can throwing) that after noted scum bag Tom Wilson took out another pens player and yet another no call that not one object was thrown onto the ice.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)

Who did Wilson hit tonight, trying to find video. The hit on Dumo was pretty bad, I think it was regular season it may have been suspension worthy, but who the fuck knows what the wheel of justice will land on

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Ton Wilson is a monster. Clean hit.

I’ve pretty much had my fill of the Guentzel-Crosby thing. The Caps gotta figure those two out. If they can figure out how to shit them down they might have a shot. But right now those two are carrying the Pens all the way to lead after lead.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

That's the shitty thing about the Pens, you shut down the current hot hands and they typically have a new pair to fill their spot. Those assholes

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Honestly I think the Caps have fully handled all elements of the Penguins very well except those two. Malkin coming back in definitely adds in a new element. He’s always excelled against the Caps.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Not even close, the primary contact was with Reese's head and you can clearly see that wilson left his feet to deliver that hit. He deserves a game or two suspension - probably 1 for the head contact and a second game for leaving his feet.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Maybe they need some Ex-lax.

But yeah, they’re killing it. If the rest of the team wakes up a bit more, Caps could be in trouble. As per usual, this series is a battle.

And wow, Winnipeg tied it up, cool.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Peg and nash looks like so much fun

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Wow, nice way to dig yourself out of a 3-0 hole to tie it. Go Jets! WHITEOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Primary contact was most definitely not with the head. Not sure what you’re looking at.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

If you are skating through the neutral zone with your head down no one can hit you.

Better?

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Only nice thing I'll ever say about the Penguins is their PA announcer plays a great selection of old school Metallica.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

The 17 slow motion replays they have shown. Maybe he brushed the shoulder first but I doubt even you can disagree that he left his feet to deliver that hit.

Re: The NHL Thread (Hot takes! 3elieve!)
 

Truth is Caps don’t look great tonight.
