I think the offside is pretty obvious. He had possession as he backed across the line. He gave up possession to pass it. When he released the puck, it hadn't fully crossed the blueline, so he immediately became offside.
If he had have continued backing into the zone with possession until the puck fully entered the zone, then passed, its a good goal.
I could be wrong, but i believe the analysts trying to say it had to do with him not touching the puck briefly while having control are mistaken.
Bang on. That’s how I viewed it too, and it makes sense. He holds in another half second til he’s over the line and then passes, the play would be onside.

Was at the wranglers game and was trying to avoid the score so I can come home and watch it on PVR. As a habit got on Calgarypuck right the minute this PGT thread started. What a journey this thread was following live.
Turned off the desktop and started getting ready for bedtime... Logged back on to CP with my tablet to look at the PGT and thought it was some sort of joke meme. Googled "NHL scores" to be sure. LOL

I just don’t understand the obsession with Reaves. Steel looked good last game and he gets rewarded by being scratched. Why not give him a few to keep him fresh and see if that success continues?
Quote:
Because they're gonna let Lucic and Reavo fight one last time before Reavo rides off into the sunset
Quote:
The dream scenario with Reaves is that he beats up Lucic and then immediately retires to become the color analyst for BSN
Quote:
Reaves is absolutely nothing as a player to me and shouldn’t even be considered to be in the lineup. He’s an enforcer at this point that provides nothing else. He should be fighting every game if he’s in the lineup. I know there’s a supposed “trickle down effect” where everyone feels like they can play bigger, but it’s not like guys are out here lighting the other team up. Everyone can play the same way they’re playing without reavo in the lineup. If we were running guys left and right that’d be different.
Quote:
I think Steel is a nothing burger. He is Jost, but with a smaller cap hit, which makes him more palatable.
Reaves hurts people with his hitting, plays smart, and in certain situations you want the threat of him on the ice. I do agree that he doesn’t need to play every game, though. He is very slow. Also think that Shaw is starting to get exposed as a tweener, after a strong start.

Calgary is going to come out guns blazing. Wild gotta weather the early storm and get on their game and wear them down.
Quote:
Beating the Stars with 5 seconds left in the game in Dallas last night probably gave them a big shot of motivation.
Cheering for them last night is probably gonna bite me in the butt.

They have a Peeps flavored Pepsi. Each day we move further away from God's Light. I don't know if humanity can recover from this, I don't know if we should honestly.

Is interference legal now?

The #### that Eriksson Ek takes that goes unpenalized is almost unfathomable.
Quote:
absolutely bull#### how ek gets treated without a penalty
Quote:
there's been times where he is literally laying on the ice getting his head punched and the refs take him...its a joke
Quote:
I can only assume Ek is ####ing every flames players’ mom.
Quote:
Yeah I think it’s time for Reaves to settle things down.. put him out there Dean
Quote:
Flames gooning it up, boys gotta play hard but smart. Let Reaves police the ice and keep our skill players out of the box.
Several good looks that period, just gotta keep getting pucks on net on a weary goaltender. Holy #### hope Boldy is ok! Gus continues to shine! LFG!!
Quote:
Should've been 4 on 4. No way Hartman was the only offender there... sigh.
Quote:
Flames seem to have an agitating strategy this evening. Smart.
Quote:
For sure. Officiating is definitely lopsided...and not in their favor. Hopefully that turns around, because that period was pretty terrible officiating-wise.
Quote:
Hartman... WTF?!?
Quote:
The mother####er is literally laying on Hartman. You've got to be mother####ing kidding me what the flying #### is wrong with these goddamn mother####ing refs.

No interference on Lucic there??

Is Ritchie the guy who’s face looks extremely punchable?

Why is Reaves even in at this point?
Quote:
Give us Lucic vs Reaves cowards
Quote:
Where is Reaves at? I see Lucic pounding guys, I see Ritchie pounding guys and Reaves.....crickets.... If he isn't going to get physical they should call up Sammy Walker.

f***ing shoot.

Bah, someone shoot it into the net!
Quote:
Freddy, you shoot that... you had no passing lane!
Quote:
Good googly moogly. Some great passing on that pp but a lot of hesitation to shoot
Quote:
lets play hockey eh? no more of this PP garbage anymore please

Well this PP is trashy.
WTH are we doing?

Somebody...anybody...shoot a puck.

Good game for the Wild.....ya know, if it was a road game.
He had the puck before crossing, that should be considered possession
Quote:
I think it’s because he passed it
Quote:
They look rattled.
Quote:
thats such a terrible offsides call to reverse a game deciding goal i cant ####ing believe it
Quote:
I don't get how that doesn't count as possession
Quote:
He received the puck. He stopped the puck. And pushed it to set up the pass. Just ####ing bull####.
Quote:
Determining possession of the puck by requiring it to be on your stick is ridiculous. Spurgeon was the lone puck carrier with nobody on him
Quote:
Lol crowd cheering as ref got hit with puck
Shutout Dad

Not only are the Flames on the 2nd game of a back to back, but so is their goalie, which is rare. How we aren't throwing the kitchen sink at him right now......

Their bad goalie at that.

First goal wins the game.

Markstrom is going to need the logo replaced on his jersey after the game. So many grade As right into the breadbasket.

Still waiting for the offense from those acquisitions… Maybe it’s the system, Bill.

My prediction on who’s going to score according to the game of Clue…
Ek with the shovel on the doorstep!
Quote:
These guys are going to be having nightmares tonight about the chances their getting.

I can't believe that we get the one great Markstrom game of the season.
Tyler Foli in the Shootout!

This league just shoots itself in the foot. Now its going to go to shootouts, terrible way to decide a game.

Boldy missed the ####ing empty net

#### THE REFS, #### THE FLAMES, #### EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS ####ING GAME TONIGHT

Honestly I'm happy with at least one point.
The third period had "outplay the other team but get unlucky and lose on some bull####" written all over it.

I’m sure some here will be too, unfortunately
Quote:
How to teams play to 0-0 in 2023. Scoring ain't that hard. Both teams should get zero pts for some travesty like this. Plus refund all the fans. Did the teams do a handshake on the game?
At the very least failure to score should NOT get an extra point. Two teams too futile to even score a goal and its rewarded as a 3pt game?
Years ago when the Edmonton Drillers were in the NASL (which was the big Soccer league of the time) you would get 1pt each for a tie. If a club scored a 1-0 W they would get 2pts. If you scored 2 or more goals in a W you would get 3pts. This rewarded scoring and was good to dissuade the kind of game that was played tonight.
Quote:
Jesus Murphy. Hopefully this little hot streak of Markstrom's comes to a crashing halt.
