This league clearly has no clue what is and what isn?t a kick

I have no idea either. So inconsistent. I'm confused why there was no review considering the recent call.
 
Why don't they just get rid of the kicking rule? Because that's twice already this season an obvious kicked goal was allowed.

Been saying that for years. My opinion off your skate no goal whether kicked or not. Simple.

I think that?s overkill, but I?d go for any sort of seemingly intentional movement towards the puck with the skate is no goal - and that includes changing the angle of the skate.
 
Would like to see a little more from Tavares tonight.  He was pretty quiet yesterday

On another note... This team looks terrible.

Sure does.  Wake up, jeez.

BTW thanks to whoever pinned up the MoTM thread.  I just got caught up with G1.  I also have tweaked the scoring system this year so take a look at the thread.

My suggestion doesn't leave the door open for any challenges, reviews etc. Cut and dry off your skate whether intentional or not directed in etc it's no goal. This isn't soccer. One last night for a game winning goal for Vegas shouldn't have counted either. Change the dumb rule. What gets me is the player intentionally directed the puck in with his skate so why in the world should that be allowed.

what did Engvall do?  I can't see the game.

Giveaway led to a (questionable) goal.

Made a nice cross ice pass in his own end at the blue line to a Senator which ended up in the net. Was maybe 5 feet from the blue line along the boards. Dumped it out the game would still be tied.
 
What I don't understand is the inconsistency of the hockey gods.  Melnyk flat out criticized the Leafs rebuild by saying that they had forgotten about the defence.  Then tonight the way the Sens introduced Brady Tkachuk was a little over the top.

If the Leafs did either of those things against another team, BAM!!!! 20 game losing streak against that team with at least 5 of those losses being the embarrassing kind.

No, no, it?s like a home plate umpire?s strike zone. Whatever gets established early is the standard for the rest of the game. Or in this case, the season.
