I still say they MUST change how the offside rule itself works if they're going to keep the offside challenge.

 

[lamaroo]

better than getting the call wrong especially in the final

He had the puck on his stick, his body wasn't over the line completely, but his back skate came off the ice an inch.

It's not like he got some huge advantage there that forced the Penguins to play that shift terribly.

Oh well though, offside is offside, but I think they should look at the skate on ice rule.

 

[ColdPizza]

It was very clear he lifted his leg.

No it wasn't. There's no way they can tell the degree to which the skate was lifted, if at all. That offsides challenge was a Hail Mary.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

That looked bad.. I hope Murray is okay

 

[Gunstar Ikari]

Oh lord, the fucking Fiddler line

 

[OfficerRaichu15]

Fuck the penguins this shit is fixed

 

[lamaroo]

I want Subban to score another one and yell "challenge that!" to the Pens bench.

Of course then he'd get crucified

Any time I see a potential offside, I no longer think wow, what an exciting play. I think this is pointless now.

make an offside call as a one time use

you lose your time out regardless of outcome

looked like his foot was off the ice by the time the puck reached the blue line let alone when it crossed it. Even if it's close I think the instant replay should apply. This is like saying if the tip of the ball barely touches the goal line in the NFL we shouldn't count the touchdown.

 

[j-wood]

Yeah there is literally no way you could see if his blade was lifted off the ice. Not possible.

 

[Ray Wonder]

I know what it's like to be a pats fan now 😍

 

[Cat Party]

Offside review should only be allowed if the team scores on the rush.

They should get rid of the offside rule entirely. Worst rule in sports. Only serves one purpose, which is to reduce offence.

Yup once it was challenged, they have to look at it closely, or they aren't doing their job. It's a good rule if the refs miss an obvious offside, which they sometimes do (especially in junior leagues), but that one was pretty close... surprised the pens challenged it.

Games would be pretty boring if there were no offside rule, imo. I don't want to see a bunch of hail mary passes all game long.
