WestcoastCanuck 0 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 "The fans call a penalty...the refs do not."That was Jim Hughson, during the Flyers - Flames games. It is one of his signature lines. Link to post Share on other sites
gruven 530 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 You don't know that. Okay, that's true..... in the sense that, if I skate through the crease, drop my shoulder and drive the goalie into the corner, it's still possible for my winger to shoot the puck over the empty net. HOWEVER.... did it affect THE POTENTIAL OUTCOME OF THE PLAY? Absolutely. And, as I've said earlier, when I first saw the goal, I thought it should have stood. The net cam review completely changed my mind.. Link to post Share on other sites

HOWEVER.... did it affect THE POTENTIAL OUTCOME OF THE PLAY? Absolutely. And, as I've said earlier, when I first saw the goal, I thought it should have stood. The net cam review completely changed my mind..Ok I agree with you that according to the rulebook the goal should stand...However its a stupid rule...bodychecking the goalie is one thing, but what Blake did was totally unintentional and probably had no effect on the outcome of the goal....Remember the stupid rule a few years ago that was changed, where even if you had an inch of a toe in the crease the goal was disallowed.....It should be a judgment call by the refs or video replay guys...

runthemover 39 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Oh god..... five hundred guys in Buffalo just heard that, screamed 'BRETT HULL' and punched themselves in the groin....I'm not a buffalo fan, but I still don't understand how everybody watching at home was able to tell he was in the crease yet no official (upstairs watching the broadcast) was able to see this.

I remember reading/hearing that now. I still say it's total BS considering they had the stupid rule, but I'm not a sabres fan so oh well.back to the leaf talk. Link to post Share on other sites
