Mustache of God Posted June 23, 2017 Report Posted June 23, 2017 re: the offsides challenge, they're floating the idea of that if you lose a challenge you get assessed a minor penalty. I'm a big fan of this rule as it'll eliminate coaches throwing the flag to review a skate a hairline off the ice. It'll still work to catch plays that are 5 feet offside but will deter the "dice-roll" challenges. Quote

Just get rid of the damn thing There's zero-chance the NHL is going to remove the challenge. I like the proposal that I heard, it'd also stop coaches from throwing a challenge for a "free-timeout" with the potential of calling back a goal. Quote
Taro T Posted June 23, 2017 Report Posted June 23, 2017 Sometimes the most simple solution is the best. Just get rid of the damn thing Would rather have them keep it but the ref has exactly 1 minute to review it (maybe 30 or 45 seconds). If it isn't obvious by then, the call stands. Quote

If it isn't obvious by then, the call stands. It should go to Toronto. Why have the refs look at a 8" tablet to overturn their original call? A team in Toronto should be looking at every goal and should know whether or not it's offsides by the time the coaches decide to challenge it. Quote

I have a hard time believing that they're not in on Hosea. He's the veritable perfect Arizona Coyote. Quote

Brawndo Posted June 24, 2017 Report Posted June 24, 2017 Lindy hired as Asst Coach by Rangers NYR have hired Lindy Ruff as an associate coach, as first reported by @FullTiltNYRBlog Quote
Sabre fan Posted June 25, 2017 Report Posted June 25, 2017 Lindy will be head coach by December...McDavid...14 million??? holy crap. What does Leon get then? 7 or 8 million? And TJ gets like 8 years? That is absurd. Jack must be thinking if he plays his cards right and puts up big number this year the sky's the limit... Quote
