Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
Dont need no explanation, he was stopping on 1 foot basically. It was already going in. There was no distinct kicking motion. So surprised thiz was called back. They needed a slam dunk case to turn this back and they didnt even have anything close
I dunno, I didn't agree with the call. How is that any different than angling your skate to direct the puck in? He's falling on one leg with pressure from behind and his right leg hooked up on Smith's pad.

Bieksa argued during the intermission that Coleman extended his back leg, and use flat part of his skate blade to make contact with the puck.
I know it seems weird but all they need to prove is, was there a kicking motion that propelled the puck into the net? In this case there was. The guy can say the kicking motion was due to whatever, but that doesn't matter - it was a kicking motion, it hit the puck, it deflected the puck into the goal... No goal
Sports rules seem weird sometimes, but they have to call it by the book, since they can't prove intent. That's why it's worded that way. This goal gets disallowed 10 times out of 10, whether it's in the playoffs, Stanley Cup Finals, or preseason.
Fans of course aren't going to see it that way, but if you look at it objectively, that's how it is. I fucking hope people don't riot over this!

There will be some scuffles, but I don't think people are dumb enough to riot over hockey anymore in Canada. Vancouver's riot was the first one in the smartphone era, and it didn't work out well for lots of people.

I mean I get being all out of sorts losing in game 7 OT, but they were down 3-1 and being outplayed at pretty much every level. If game 1 wasn't such a gong show, this easily could have been a sweep.
Don't riot over one disallowed goal in a series you basically got swept in
