Im not sure why people are so upset by offsides being reviewable. Well other than it took Johnnys awesome assist away.
If the play was offside, the goal shouldn't count. You cannot go into the zone before the puck. I don't care if your in the zone for 90 seconds and then score. You shouldn't have ever been in the zone. I have seen so many goals count where that team has been offside in seasons past. Drives me crazy since PVR's have been around. I like the rule and think it brings a heightened level of integrity to the league.
On another note, loved the play of Backlund, Frolik, Giordano, Brodie and Hamilton last night.
Flames are playing some good hockey right now. Crawled out of the basement, things are looking up.
Jackpot.
