you must really love Crosby LOL

Connor McDavd and Auston Matthews will better than him
You must really love McDavid and Toronto Maple Leafs Auston Matthews. I am glad you think Matthews will be better than Crosby because that will probably also mean that your beloved Maple Leafs will be winning a Stanley Cup.

Just for the record, Crosby had more points than both players during their rookie seasons (granted McDavid did not play a full season). During a full second season for Crosby and McDavid, Crosby out scored McDavid 120 points to 100 including 36 to 30 in goals and 84 to 70 in assists. I know how much you are in love with McDavid and Matthews, lol, but come back to me after McDavid's third season and his first Stanley Cup. Or better yet, come back when Auston Matthews leads the Toronto Maple Leafs to their Stanley Cup win in the next few years. By that time, you should be out of your diapers and training pants, lol.

Yes, I do know that and for most, that was clear in my original post where I said that this rule is dated, as there are now 2 refs on the ice, not one, which was the case when the original rule was drafted.
I know you understood that. My response was to Gameboy27's response, not yours.

Actually no, it wouldn't have counted. Once the whistle went the play was dead, period. The puck needs to cross the line before the whistle for it to count.


If it had trickled in after the whistle, it would have been open to video review and therefore deemed a goal by all standards.


As I stated in my original post, this is a dated rule, made when there was only one ref on the ice. With two refs and at least one linesman, surely the puck is visible to one of them and if so, this play should be open to a coaches challenge and video review. Off sides are open to this, having goals disallowed, and NHL control reviewed a play and allowed a Preds goal in an earlier game, while play was still going on. How they can allow one and not the other is beyond me.

My bad Samranchoi, I misquoted.

No so. Once the whistle is blown, the play is dead. It doesn't matter if the puck rolls in by itself or a player taps it in. The whistle stops the play. Anything after will not count and under the current rules. The call on the ice stands and the play is not reviewable.

Offsides and goaltender interference are different because the puck crosses the line before the whistle is blown. At which point the coach challenges the play. Refs can also review plays in the case of a goal on a high stick or to check if the puck actually crossed the line. Again, both of those scenarios, the puck crosses the line before the whistle is blown.

In fact, as there is a human factor involved in blowing the whistle to stop play, the Ref may deem the play to be stopped slightly prior to the whistle actually being blown. The fact that the puck may come loose or cross the goal line prior to the sound of the whistle has no bearing if the Ref has ruled that the play had been stopped prior to this happening.

Until if and when the rules are changed, that's the way it is.

Damn fine job. I suspect that you could have made some huge money if you'd have bet on those outcomes before the playoffs started.

Not so;

Rule 38.4 of the league's rulebook states that video review is available in situations where an official "stops play or is in the process of stopping the play because he has lost sight of the puck and it is subsequently determined by video review that the puck crosses (or has crossed) the goal line and enters the net as the culmination of a continuous play where the result was unaffected by the whistle (i.e., the timing of the whistle was irrelevant to the puck entering the net at the end of a continuous play)."

Had the puck tricked in on its own, it would have been reviewable, but Sissons touched the puck, making the play unreviewable.

The only thing I still need to figure out how to do.
