It also annoys me that the system takes away goals because of a missed call but there is no recourse if a missed call that wasn't offside takes away a scoring chance. If they want to continue this way why not just get rid of the linesman and review every single goal for offside.
I can't wait til a team inevitably gets Buffaloed in the playoffs on a missed offside in OT and the NHL quietly removes the rule the next season.

I really think this rule is too stupid that it will be gone no matter what. Man this rule is so stupid.
